Plasmids and Antibiotic Susceptibillity of the Rhodococcus equi
Nineteen strains of Rhodococcus equi is olated from clinical cases were analyzed for antibiotic susceptibilityand the presence of plasmids. All the strains were multiple drug resistant and contained a 9.4Kb plasmid.Virulent plasmids were not found. Further study is needed to determine the biological significance of 9.4Kbplasmid.
