Heteroresistance of Cryptococcus gattii to Fluconazole [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2010 ABSTRACT We analyzed 71 clinical and environmental Cryptococcus gattii strains that had been isolated before or after the advent of azole antifungals to determine their level of heteroresistance to fluconazole (LHF). All strains of C.

Bacterial Cooperation Leads to Heteroresistance
DEStech Transactions on Computer Science and Engineering, 2018 By challenging E. coli with sublethal norfloxacin for 10 days, Henry Lee and James Collins suggests the bacterial altruism leads to the population-wide resistance. By detailedly analyzing experiment data, we suggest that bacterial cooperation leads to population-wide resistance under norfloxacin pressure and simultaneously propose the bacteria shield ...

Heteroresistance to Vancomycin in Enterococcus faecium [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001 ABSTRACT This study presents the first report of vancomycin heteroresistance in an Enterococcus faecium isolate from a patient. The original isolate was susceptible in vitro to vancomycin. E-tests showed growth of subcolonies in a zone of inhibition with a vancomycin MIC of >256 μg/ml.

Bacteremia Caused by Staphylococci with Inducible Vancomycin Heteroresistance [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1999 The clinical significance of bacteremia due to vancomycin-heteroresistant staphylococci and a rapid laboratory screening method were examined; 203 strains of staphylococci isolated from patients with clinically significant bacteremia were screened by the disk-agar method with use of vancomycin-salt agar to demonstrate satellitism around an aztreonam ...

Mechanism of Eravacycline Resistance in Clinical Enterococcus faecalis Isolates From China
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Opportunistic infections caused by multidrug-resistant Enterococcus faecalis strains are a significant clinical challenge. Eravacycline (Erava) is a synthetic fluorocycline structurally similar to tigecycline (Tige) that exhibits robust antimicrobial ...

A low affinity penicillin-binding protein 2x is required for heteroresistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]
, 2014 Heteroresistance to penicillin in Streptococcus pneumoniae is the ability of subpopulations to grow at a higher antibiotic concentration than expected from the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC).
