Collaborative Evaluation of an Erythromycin-Clindamycin Combination Well for Detection of Inducible Clindamycin Resistance in Beta-Hemolytic Streptococci by Use of the CLSI Broth Microdilution Method

Constitutive or inducible clindamycin resistance can occur in beta-hemolytic streptococci due to the presence of an erm gene. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) has recommended a disk approximation test (D-zone test) with erythromycin and clindamycin disks and a single-well broth...
