Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic Resistance in Developing Countries
TL;DR: Depuis 15 ans on observe des epidemies de maladies infectieuses dues a des souches bacteriennes resistantes dans le monde.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular analysis of plasmids in epidemiologic investigation.
TL;DR: The techniques themselves fall into two categories: indirect and direct techniques, which include agarose gel electrophoresis and restriction endonuclease analysis, which involve hybridization of DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of a Plasmid Mediating Resistance to Multiple Antimicrobial Agents During a Prolonged Epidemic of Nosocomial Infections
TL;DR: During this five-year investigation separate outbreaks of nosocomial infections that were caused by different bacterial species were shown to be related by the presence of plasmids that contained a common transposable DNA sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transfer of Ampicillin Resistance between Strains of Haemophilus influenzaeType B
Thorne Gm,Farrar We +1 more
TL;DR: Transfer of ampicillin resistance between strains of H. influenzae is probably mediated by conjugation since transfer requires cell-to-cell contact, remains unchanged in the presence of DNase I, and occurs in the absence of demonstrable bacteriophage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antistaphylococcal Activity and β-Lactamase Resistance of Newer Cephalosporins
Farrar We,Gramling Pk +1 more
TL;DR: Four newer cephalosporins were investigated for determination of their antistaphylococcal activity and relative stability and a correlation was found between the susceptibility of different agents to P-lactamase and the magnitude of the effect of inoculum size when the drugs were tested against large and small inocula of staphyl bacteria.
