Penicillin-resistant Variants of Pneumococci [PDF]
Applied Microbiology, 1968 All of the 74 strains of pneumococci isolated from human infections from 1963 to 1964 proved to be uniformly and highly susceptible to penicillin. Of these strains, 15 were identified by capsule-swelling reactions and were submitted to serial transfer in the presence of increasing concentrations of penicillin.

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Streptococcus pneumoniae and Neisseria meningitidis have very similar mechanisms of resistance to penicillin G. Although penicillin resistance is now common in S. pneumoniae, it is still rare in N. meningitidis.

Using Hospital Antibiogram Data To Assess Regional Pneumococcal Resistance to Antibiotics
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Antimicrobial resistance to penicillin and macrolides in Streptococcus pneumoniae has increased in the United States over the past decade. Considerable geographic variation in susceptibility necessitates regional resistance tracking.

Genetics of high level penicillin resistance in clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae.
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1995 Mosaic penicillin-binding proteins (PBP) 1A, 2X and 2B genes were cloned from four clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae with levels of susceptibility to penicillin ranging from 1.5 to 16 micrograms benzylpenicillin ml-1.

Emergence of macrolide and penicillin resistance among invasive pneumococcal isolates in Germany.
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2002 Continuous nationwide surveillance of antibiotic resistance in invasive pneumococcal disease was performed in Germany between 1992 and 2000, with a total of 2586 strains being isolated.
