Molecular and proteomic analysis of levofloxacin and metronidazole resistant Helicobacter pylori

Antibiotic resistance in bacteria incur fitness cost, but compensatory mechanisms may ameliorate the cost and sustain the resistance even under antibiotics-free conditions. The aim of this study was to determine compensatory mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in H. pylori. Five strains of levofloxa...
