Macrolide-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes in Norway: population structure and resistance determinants.

P Littauer1, D A Caugant, M Sangvik, E A Høiby, A Sundsfjord, G S Simonsen.   

Abstract

A 2.7% prevalence of macrolide resistance in 1,657 Norwegian clinical Streptococcus pyogenes isolates was primarily due to erm(TR) (59%) and mef(A) (20%). Four clonal complexes comprised 75% of the strains. Macrolide resistance in S. pyogenes in Norway is imported as resistant strains or locally selected in internationally disseminated susceptible clones.
