Abstract The prevalence, resistance patterns and serotypes of antibiotic-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae strains recovered from Greek carriers under 24 months of age were studied. From February 1997 to April 1998, nasopharyngeal cultures were performed in 1269 children (ages 2–23 months, median 11 months) living in various areas of central and southern Greece. Resistance (including both intermediate and resistant isolates) to one or more antimicrobial agents was found in 132 of the 421 (31%) Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates, as follows: penicillin, 9% intermediate, 7.6% resistant; cefotaxime, 5.2% intermediate, 0.5% resistant; erythromycin, 0.7% intermediate, 18.1% resistant; clindamycin, 0.2% intermediate, 12.4% resistant; tetracycline, 0.7% intermediate, 16.4% resistant; chloramphenicol, 12.4% resistant; and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, 3.8% intermediate, 14.3% resistant. The MICs of penicillin for 66% of the penicillin-nonsusceptible pneumococci were 1–4 μg/ml. Multidrug resistance was found in 64% of penicillin-nonsusceptible and 37% of penicillin-susceptible strains. Sixty-two percent of the penicillin-susceptible, multidrug-resistant strains belonged to serotype 6B and were resistant to all five non-β-lactam agents tested. This notable serotype 6B resistance pattern was described for the first time in a previous study performed from December 1995 to February 1996 in the city of Patras, southwestern Greece. Seventy-two percent of antibiotic-resistant isolates belonged to serotypes 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F and 23F. These results document the spread of resistant pneumococcal strains in central and southern Greece, many of which are multidrug resistant.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
