Abstract
ABSTRACT
We studied the telithromycin, erythromycin, azithromycin, and clindamycin susceptibilities of serotype III macrolide-resistant group B streptococci, together with genetic mechanisms of resistance and genomic diversity.

were found in, respectively, 57, 32, and 9% of isolates. The telithromycin MIC at which 90% of isolates were inhibited was 0.5 μg/ml. Macrolide resistance was associated with dissemination of resistance determinants among isolates of different genetic backgrounds.
