Introduction: Tetracyclines are widely used in dental treatment. Here, we report the genomic information of the tetracycline-resistant Streptococcus mutans strain, HSM45, for the first time.
Methods: Susceptibility to tetracycline was determined using the microdilution method.
We report the first case of a lymphocele and bloodstream infection caused by S. coagulans post-surgery. Single nucleotide polymorphism-based analyses revealed closely related S.

Phenotypic testing found 8 of 120 Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) and 15 of 69 Enterobacter cloacae (EC) isolates were ESBL and AmpC β-lactamase (ABL) co-producers. Isolates of KP, Proteus mirabilis, and EC that only produced ESBL exhibited susceptibility rates to cefmetazole (95.

It is necessary to identify effective antibiotics and the characteristics of the pathogenic cluster for S. canis-associated deep pyoderma.
