Restricted Sequence Variation in
A recent clinical report has linked Streptococcus pyogenes β-lactam antibiotic resistance to mutation in the penicillin binding protein (PBP) PBP2x. To determine whether this is an isolated case or reflects a broader prevalence of mutations that might ...

Antimicrobial Resistance with Streptococcus pneumoniae in the United States, 1997–98
From November 1997 to April 1998, 1,601 clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae were obtained from 34 U.S. medical centers. The overall rate of strains showing resistance to penicillin was 29.5%, with 17.4% having intermediate resistance. Multidrug

Penicillin Resistant Staphylococci
Summary(1) In a study of the susceptibility of 115 strains of staphylococci to penicillin 16 or 13.9% were found to be resistant. (2) All strains resistant to penicillin produced penicillinase; none of the susceptible strains had this property. (3) Many of the penicillinase-producing staphylococci produce coagulase indicating the importance of the ...

Induction of In Vitro Resistance to Penicillin in Viridans Group Streptococci and Its Effect on Susceptibility Pattern of Other Antimicrobial Agents [PDF]
Background: The development of resistance to penicillin in Viridans Group Streptococci (VGS) during therapy has been reported. However, the in vitro development of resistance to penicillin or other antimicrobial agents in VGS is mostly overlooked and
