Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of 364 Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates and studied the genotypes of S. pneumoniae with high level β-lactam resistance in Taiwan. Clonal complexes related to Spain^23F-1, Taiwan^19F-14, and Taiwan^23F-15 were responsible for the spread of isolates with high β-lactam resistance.
