Analysis of newly detected tetracycline resistance genes and their flanking sequences in human intestinal bifidobacteria
Abstract Due to tetracycline abuse, the safe bifidobacteria in the human gastrointestinal intestinal tract (GIT) may serve as a reservoir of tetracycline resistance genes. In the present investigation of 92 bifidobacterial strains originating from the human GIT, tetracycline resistance in 29 strains...
