Contribution of ROB-1 and PBP3 mutations to the resistance phenotype of a β-lactamase-positive amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-resistant Haemophilus influenzae carrying plasmid pB1000 in Italy.

OBJECTIVES: plasmid pB1000 bearing bla(ROB-1) is responsible for high-level β-lactam resistance in Haemophilus influenzae as well as in Pasteurella multocida and Haemophilus parasuis isolates from Spain. Here, we explore the presence of ROB-1 in Italy and investigate the relative contribution of pe...
