The highly dynamic nature of bacterial heteroresistance impairs its clinical detection
Bacterial populations can show heteroresistance, where an antibiotic resistant subpopulation is part of a susceptible one. Pereira et al. show in Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica that disk diffusion, a common antibiotic susceptibility test, underestimates the occurrence of heteroresistance i...

| Sumario: | Bacterial populations can show heteroresistance, where an antibiotic resistant subpopulation is part of a susceptible one. Pereira et al. show in Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica that disk diffusion, a common antibiotic susceptibility test, underestimates the occurrence of heteroresistance in clinical isolates. |
