Gomes C, Martínez-Puchol S, Ruiz-Roldán L, Pons MJ, Del Valle Mendoza J, Ruiz J.
PMID: 27667026
Sci Rep. 2016 Sep 26;6:33584. doi: 10.1038/srep33584.

The objective was to develop and characterise in vitro Bartonella bacilliformis antibiotic resistant mutants. Three B. bacilliformis strains were plated 35 or 40 times with azithromycin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin or rifampicin discs. Resistance-stability was assessed performing 5 serial passages without...
