Molecular characterization and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles in Streptococcus agalactiae colonizing strains: association of erythromycin resistance with subtype III-1 genetic clone family

Knowledge of the epidemiology of Streptococcus agalactiae in Portugal is limited: therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the carriage rate of S. agalactiae among Portuguese women of reproductive age and the prevalence of antibiotic resistance, as well as to perform a molecular characteriz...
