Plasmid-mediated resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in Salmonella krefeld strains isolated in the United States.
Two types of transmissible plasmids which encode resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were found among five animal isolates of Salmonella krefeld. This is the first report of plasmid-mediated resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in Salmonella strains isolated in the United States.
