Mechanisms of quinolone resistance and implications for human and animal health [PDF]
Veterinarski Glasnik, 2010 Quinolone antibiotics have been widely used in human and veterinary medicine. This has caused the development of resistance and difficulties in the treatment of complicated bacterial infections in humans.

Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance in Australia
Microbial Drug Resistance, 2006 The aim of this study was to search for plasmid-encoded quinolone resistance determinants QnrA and QnrS in fluoroquinolone-resistant and extended-spectrum β -lactamase (ESBL)-producing enterobacterial isolates recovered in Sydney, Australia, in 2002. Twenty-three fluoroquinolone-resistant, of

Temporal Appearance of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance Genes [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2009 ABSTRACT One hundred fifty AAC(6′)-Ib-positive gram-negative isolates collected between 1981 and 1991 were examined by PCR for the presence of the aac(6 ′ )-Ib-cr variant and other plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes. None had the aac(6 ′

Origin of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance Determinant QnrA [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2005 ABSTRACT Plasmid-mediated resistance to quinolones is increasingly reported in studies of Enterobacteriaceae . Using a PCR-based strategy, a series of gram-negative species were screened for qnrA -like genes.

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016 Background:Although quinolone resistance results mostly from chromosomal mutations in Enterobacteriaceae, it may also be mediated by plasmid-encoded qnr determinants. Shigella harboring the novel qnr plasmid-mediated mechanism of quinolone resistance has

Quinolone resistance mechanisms among extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli isolated from rivers and lakes in Switzerland. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Sixty extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli isolated from rivers and lakes in Switzerland were screened for individual strains additionally exhibiting a reduced quinolone susceptibility phenotype.

Quinolone Resistance Genes and Their Contribution to Resistance in Vibrio cholerae Serogroup O139
Antibiotics, 2023 Background. Quinolones are commonly used for reducing the duration of diarrhea, infection severity, and limiting further transmission of disease related to Vibrio cholerae, but V. cholerae susceptibility to quinolone decreases over time.

Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinant qnrS in Enterobacter cloacae [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2006 PCR was used to investigate the occurrence of the plasmid-encoded quinolone resistance determinants qnrA and qnrS among diarrhoeagenic enterobacterial isolates recovered from Hanoi, Vietnam, during the period March 2001 to April 2002. In total, 162 Escherichia coli isolates, 28 Shigella isolates and three Enterobacter cloacae isolates were negative for
