Evidence of antimicrobial resistance-conferring genetic elements among pneumococci isolated prior to 1974
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance among pneumococci has greatly increased over the past two to three decades. Resistance to tetracycline (tet(M)), chloramphenicol (cat) and macrolides (erm(B) and/or mef(A/E)) is generally conferred by acquisition of specific genes that are associated with mobile...
