Antibiotic resistance pattern of group-a beta-hemolytic streptococci isolated from north Indian children.
BACKGROUND The current resistance pattern of GABHS (group-A beta-hemolytic streptococci) in India has not been discussed. AIM To fill the above-mentioned void, we planned this study to determine the prevalence and degree of antibacterial resistance in GABHS isolates. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Children with acute pharyngo-tonsillitis who had not received antibiotic in the preceding week, attending...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance patterns of group B streptococci in pregnant women.
This study examined the antibiotic resistance patterns of group B streptococci (GBS) isolated from gravid women. A total of 156 vaginal and cervical isolates of GBS were examined for resistance to penicillin, ampicillin, clindamycin, cefoxitin, gentamicin, and erythromicin. No resistance to penicillin or ampicillin was found, nor was penicillinase production demonstrated. A high level of resist...
متن کاملThe prevalence of emm types and Resistance to Erythromycin Pattern among group A Streptococci isolated from the throat in north of Iran
Abstract Background and objectives: Group A Streptococcus (GAS) strains have been identified by serologic methods based on surface protein antigens, T and M. Accordingly, different serotypes have been reported worldwide. Recently, the previous out of date procedures have been replaced by N-terminal emm gene sequence, which has been used in identifying more than 150 emm types. We aimed to determ...
متن کاملSurvey of strain distribution and antibiotic resistance pattern of group B streptococci (Streptococcus agalactiae) isolated from clinical specimens
AIM The aims of the present study were to determine the antibiotic susceptibility profils with particular emphasis on susceptible or resistant strains to macrolides and lincosamids antibiotics and to determine possible antibiotic resistance mechanisms occurring in group B streptococci (GBS) strains using PCR assay and disk diffusion method. METHODS A total of 62 clinical GBS strains were inve...
