Detection of Mutant Mycoplasma hominis Strains Resistant to 16-Membered Macrolide Antibiotic Josamycin in Clinical Samples.

摘要

The incidence of point mutations responsible for josamycin resistance was studied by PCR in 48 strains of M. hominis isolated from patients with bacterial vaginosis. Mutant M. hominis strains were detected in 48% cases.
