Abstract

ABSTRACT The genetic basis of antibiotic resistance in 113 unrelated group B streptococci was studied by PCR. Ninety-four strains were resistant to tetracycline-minocycline, and tet (M) was detected in 85% of these isolates. Seventeen erythromycin-resistant strains contained the erm (B), erm (TR), or mef (A) gene. Eleven strains exhibited high-level resistance to kanamycin due to the presence of the aphA3 gene; eight of these strains were also highly resistant to streptomycin; aad - 6- related sequences were detected in seven strains.
