In vitro activity of tigecycline and resistance mechanisms due to efflux pump production in Gram negative isolates, in Portugal

Background: Tigecycline is increasingly used to treat infections caused by Gram negative isolates, because these bacteria express multidrug-resistance (MDR) phenotypes in an escalating frequency. Thus, this study aimed: 1) to correlate mediated β-lactam and fluoroquinolone resistance mechanisms (RMs...
