ABSTRACTA 2000-2001 U.S. Haemophilus influenzaesurveillance study (n= 1,434) detected nine (0.6%) ß-lactamase-negative and ampicillin-resistant (BLNAR) isolates collected from two different hospitals. The MICs of ampicillin for all nine isolates were 4 µg/ml, with results being reproducible; and all nine isolates were susceptible to amoxicillin-clavulanate, cefuroxime, cefprozil, macrolides, and fluoroquinolones. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of genomic DNA following SmaI digestion demonstrated identical patterns for each of the nine isolates, suggesting intra- and interhospital dissemination of a BLNAR clone. |
