Abstract
A 9.4-kilobase plasmid encoding penicillin, streptomycin, and sulfonamide resistance was isolated from a beta-lactamase-producing Eikenella corrodens strain. This plasmid appears to be identical to a resistance plasmid common to saprophytic Neisseria strains.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
