Abstract

ABSTRACTFifty-three pharyngitis-related and invasive isolates of Streptococcus pyogenesthat are resistant to bacitracin were collected. They were also resistant to streptomycin, kanamycin, macrolides, lincosamides, and streptogramin B. These multiresistant isolates were of emmtype 28 and clonally related as shown by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
