Distribution and genetic location of Tn7 in trimethoprim-resistant Escherichia coli.

abstract：:Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is commonly part of the normal microflora of the human upper respiratory tract. It has been implicated in periodontal disease and various infections, particularly endocarditis. We report here what we believe to be the first case of recurrent infective endocarditis due to A. actino...
