Quinolone antibiotics

open access: yes, 2019
The quinolone antibiotics arose in the early 1960s, with the first examples possessing a narrow-spectrum of activity with unfavorable pharmacokinetic properties.

Mechanisms of Resistance to Quinolones and Epidemiological Significance of Salmonella spp.

open access: yesActa Veterinaria, 2016
Bacteria develop resistance to antimicrobial agents by a number of different mechanisms. The resistance to (fluoro)quinolones in Salmonella is of particular importance especially if therapy in humans is required.

Investigation of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes in clinical Escherichia coli isolates

open access: yes, 2022
Escherichia coli (E. coli) kaynaklı enfeksiyonların tedavisinde kullanılan kinolon grubu antibiyotiklere duyarlık giderek azalmaktadır. Buna bağlı olarak, kinolon dirençli izolatların dünya genelinde daha fazla rapor edildiği görülmektedir.

Mechanisms of Reduced Susceptibility to Ciprofloxacin in Escherichia coli Isolates from Canadian Hospitals

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2012
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants play a role in the increasing resistance to fluoroquinolones among Escherichia coli isolates in Canadian hospitals, and to determine the mechanisms of reduced ...

High prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants in commensal members of the Enterobacteriaceae in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

open access: yes, 2009
Antimicrobial-resistant pathogenic members of the Enterobacteriaceae are a well-defined global problem. We hypothesized that one of the main reservoirs of dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes in Vietnam is non-pathogenic intestinal flora, and ...

Resistance to aminoglycoside and quinolone drugs among Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates from northern Jordan

open access: yesHeliyon
This study aimed to identify phenotypic and genotypic aminoglycoside and quinolone non-susceptibility and the prevalence of aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes and plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes among K.

Plasmid-Related Quinolone Resistance Determinants in Epidemic Vibrio Parahaemolyticus, Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli, and Marine Bacteria From an Aquaculture Area in Chile

open access: yes, 2014
Marine bacteria from aquaculture areas with industrial use of quinolones have the potential to pass quinolone resistance genes to animal and human pathogens.

Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance; interactions between human, animal and environmental ecologies

open access: yes, 2012
Resistance to quinolones and fluoroquinolones is being increasingly reported among human but also veterinary isolates during the last two to three decades, very likely as a consequence of the large clinical usage of those antibiotics.

Frequency of Plasmid-Located Quinolone Resistance Genes in Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae in Northern Iran

open access: yes, 2023
Background and objectives: Fluoroquinolones are a class of broad-spectrum antimicrobials typically used for the treatment of lower urinary tract infections.

Occurrence and commonalities of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance in Escherichia coli isolates recovered from livestock and food in Germany

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Quinolones are important antibiotics belonging to a family of synthetic broad-spectrum drugs. Resistance to quinolones can be chromosomally encoded or plasmid-mediated (PMQR). One PMQR mechanism is mediated by Qnr proteins.
