摘要：

An important feature of Moraxella catarrhalis is the production of beta -lactamases, which causes resistance to the penicillins. Restriction enzyme analysis was able to distinguish between the bro-1 and bro-2 beta -lactamase-encoding genes from 89 clinical isolates of M. catarrhalis. This is a rapid, simple and cost effective method of characterizing these genes. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
