   Abstract

Resistance of enteritis-causing Campylobacter to erythromycin is an emerging problem. We therefore evaluated fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for rapid detection of resistance using 74 campylobacter isolates. FISH showed specificity and sensitivity of 100% for the detection of high-level resistance.
