Drug-resistant genes, virulence characteristics, and molecular typing of clindamycin-resistant Streptococcus agalactiae in late pregnancy
Clindamycin-resistant <i>S. agalactiae</i> in late-pregnancy women in Shandong Province, China exhibits a broad resistance spectrum, diverse molecular types, and significant regional heterogeneity. These findings underscore the need for continued surveillance and region-specific strategies for preventing neonatal <i>S. agalactiae</i> infections.
