Prevalence of aac(6')-Ib-cr plasmid-mediated and chromosome-encoded fluoroquinolone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae in Italy

Gut Pathogens, 2011
The spread of aac(6')-Ib-cr plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants was evaluated in 197 enterobacterial isolates recovered in an Italian teaching hospital. The aac(6')-Ib-cr gene was found exclusively in Escherichia coli strains. The gene was

Usual and unusual antibacterial effects of quinolones [PDF]

, 2017
Recently documented antibacterial effects of quinolones are reviewed. DNA gyrase is most likely to be the primary target site for these agents. Quinolones rapidly kill susceptible bacteria; the mechanisms of the bactericidal activity, still poorly ...

Unexpected Occurrence of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance Determinants in Environmental Aeromonas spp.

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
We searched for plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants of the Qnr type in several water samples collected at diverse locations from the Seine River (Paris, France). The qnrS2 genes were identified from Aeromonas punctata subsp. punctata and A.
