Studies on Resistance Transfer Factors

Pathologia et Microbiologia, 2010
The presence of infective R factors in a high proportion of multiple resistant wild Enterobacteriaceae isolated from the faecal flora of Greek patients is demonstrated. Frequencies of transfer exceeding 1 × 10−2 per recipient cell were found in most crosses of non pathogenic × pathogenic Enterobacteriaceae studied, and vice versa.
