Vicki A. Luna,Marilyn C. Roberts +1 more
TL;DR: Evaluated the in-vitro activities of some of the newer agents against isolates of S. pneumoniae recovered from patients in Washington State found most of the penicillinsusceptible isolates were susceptible to all of the antibiotics tested, the exception being ciprofloxacin to which all but one strain were resistant.
Book ChapterDOI
The evolution of antibiotic-resistant microbes in foods and host ecosystems.
TL;DR: In this chapter, the development of tetracycline-resistant (Tcr) fish pathogens and bacteria associated with aquaculture environments is discussed and a few examples in which specific antibiotic resistance genes, regions of DNA, and/or plasmids have been found in bacteria from very different ecosystems, from different parts of the world, and in bacteria that are host species-specific.
Journal ArticleDOI
tet(M)-carrying Haemophilus influenzae as a potential reservoir for mobile antibiotic resistance genes
TL;DR: The data suggest that H. influenzae are now reservoirs for both broad-host range mobile antibiotic resistance genes, which is a shift from that of a recipient of mobile antibiotics resistance genes from unrelated genera in the 1970s, and today these strains are able to act as donors of these genes to unrelated generA.
