Plasmid‐mediated quinolone resistance in human non‐typhoidal Salmonella infections: An emerging public health problem in the United States

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, 2018
Invasive Salmonella infections in adults are commonly treated with fluoroquinolones, a critically important antimicrobial class. Historically, quinolone resistance was the result of chromosomal mutations, but plasmid‐mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR ...

Prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants among oxyiminocephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Argentina

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
High quinolone resistance rates were observed among oxyiminocephalosporin-resistant enterobacteria. In the present study, we searched for the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes within the 55 oxyiminocephalosporin-resistant ...

Increasing trend of multiple resistance and genomic mobility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to penicillin and quinolone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A significant decline of gonorrhea incidence has been observed during the years 1990-99. However, a slight increase in the number of cases has been reported in 2000. In addition, an increase in resistant strains has been found in Thailand. In this study,

Emerging Antimicrobial Resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae: A Molecular and Antibiogram Insight From the Beef Value Chain in Bangladesh

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
A total of 132 Multidrug‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was detected across the beef value chain in Bangladesh, including slaughterhouses, wet markets, and ready‐to‐eat beef outlets. Upon cultural traits, PCR, 16S rRNA sequencing, antibiogram analysis, and ARG detection revealed carbapenem resistance genes (blaIMP and blaBIC), highlighting foodborne ...

Identification and characterization of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants in Enterobacteriaceae isolated from healthy poultry in Brazil.

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
The expression of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes confers low-level quinolone and fluoroquinolones resistance alone. However, the association to chromosomal resistance mechanisms determines an expressively higher resistance in ...

Presence of qnr gene in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae resistant to ciprofloxacin isolated from pediatric patients in China

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2008
Background Quinolone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae results mainly from mutations in type II DNA topoisomerase genes and/or changes in the expression of outer membrane and efflux pumps.
