Transferable drug resistance in enterobacteria isolated from urban infants

E C Moorhouse. Br Med J. .

Abstract

Antibiotic-resistant enterobacteria, the vast majority of which carried transmissible R factors, were isolated from 81 out of a total of 100 healthy infants. There was surprisingly little correlation between previous antibacterial therapy and the resistant enterobacterial flora.
