Isolation and molecular characterization of beta-lactamase-producing Haemophilus parainfluenzae from the genital tract.

RESUMO

Three Haemophilus parainfluenzae strains isolated from the urogenital tract harbored a beta-lactamase-coding 3.2-megadalton plasmid identical, by restriction endonuclease digestion and hybridization with radioactive and biotin-labeled probes specific for the TEM-1 beta-lactamase and TnA sequences, to the 3.2-megadalton "African-type" plasmid found in Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
