The Current Case of Quinolones: Synthetic Approaches and Antibacterial Activity

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Quinolones are broad-spectrum synthetic antibacterial drugs first obtained during the synthesis of chloroquine. Nalidixic acid, the prototype of quinolones, first became available for clinical consumption in 1962 and was used mainly for urinary tract ...

Establishment of multiplex PCR for detection of genes related to Quinolone resistance

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2018
Background/aims: It has been shown that quinolone resistance arises due to mutations in the quinolone resistance-determining regions of the drug targets.

Ecology of antimicrobial resistance: humans, animals, food and environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Antimicrobial resistance is a major health problem. After decades of research, numerous difficulties in tacklingresistance have emerged, from the paucity of new antimicrobials to the inefficient contingency plans to reduce the use ofantimicrobials ...

Genetic markers associated with resistance to beta-lactam and quinolone antimicrobials in non-typhoidal Salmonella isolates from humans and animals in central Ethiopia

open access: yesAntimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2017
Background Beta-lactam and quinolone antimicrobials are commonly used for treatment of infections caused by non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) and other pathogens. Resistance to these classes of antimicrobials has increased significantly in the recent years.

Characterization of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistant genes among uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates in Bushehr, south of Iran

open access: yesBMC Research Notes
Objectives Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is important in urinary tract infection (UTI). Quinolones and fluoroquinolones are broad-spectrum antibiotics for the treatment of UTI, although some of UPEC are resistant to these antibiotics.
