Batahemolitični streptokoki skupin B in G iz Pomurja - značilnosti izolatov, odpornih proti antibiotikom = Group B and G beta-hemolytic streptococci in Pomurje region - characteristics of antimicrobial resistant isolatesŠtrumbelj, Iztok ; Seme, Katja, 1966-Background. Macrolide-resistant strains of betahemolytic streptococci have been isolated in Pomurje region in Slovenia. The aim of the study was to determine phenotypes of macrolide-lincozamide ... resistance and patterns of resistance to selected antibiotics in these isolates. Methods. Twenty-one erythromycin-resistant isolates from group B and group G beta-hemolytic streptococci, obtained from patients in Pomurje were analyzed. Phenotypes of macrolide-lincozamide resistance were determined in all isolates. In group B and group G streptococci susceptibility to 8 and 14 antibiotics was tested, respectively. Results. All 42 isolates were susceptible to penicillin and vancomycin. The majority of erythromycin-resistant group B streptococci isolates was tetracycline-resistant but susceptible to chloramphenicoland of loxacin. In erythromycin-resistant isalates of group G streptococci 5 different resistance patterns were found. The most frequent pattern was a resistance to multiple antibiotics (besides erythromycin also to midekamycin, clindamycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol and several fluoroquinolones). Conclusions. These resistant isolates are unique and represent novel example of a strong bacterial ability to adapt to changes in their environment and consequently survive in the presence of antibiotics.Source: Zdravniški vestnik : glasilo Slovenskega zdravniškega društva = Slovenian medical journal = journal of Slovenian Medical Association. - ISSN 1318-0347 (Letn. 72, št. 5, 2003, str. 283-286)Type of material - article, component partPublish date - 2003Language - slovenianCOBISS.SI-ID - 16299481
