Antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of human Campylobacter jejuni isolates and association with phylogenetic lineages

Antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of human Campylobacter jejuni isolates and association with phylogenetic lineages

Campylobacter jejuni is a zoonotic pathogen and the most common bacterial cause of human gastroenteritis worldwide. With the increase of antibiotic resistance to fluoroquinolones and macrolides, the drugs of choice for treatment, C. jejuni was recently classified as a serious antimicrobial resistan...
