Analysis and Design of A PMQR-Type Repetitive Control Scheme for Grid-Connected H6 Inverters [PDF]

Applied Sciences, 2019
There exist several challenges in the implementation of proportional multiple quasi-resonant (PMQR) control strategies in single-phase grid-connected H6 inverters, such as high computational costs and design complexity. To overcome these challenges, this

PLASMID-MEDIATED QUINOLONE RESISTANCE – PMQR [PDF]

Postępy Mikrobiologii, 2018
Abstract Fluoroquinolones(FQ) are broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents widely used to treat a range of infections in clinical medicine. However, the surveillance studies demonstrate that fluoroquinolone resistance rates increased in Enterobacteriaceae in the past years.

Impact of co-existence of PMQR genes and QRDR mutations on fluoroquinolones resistance in Enterobacteriaceae strains isolated from community and hospital acquired UTIs [PDF]

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Fluoroquinolones are commonly recommended as treatment for urinary tract infections (UTIs). The development of resistance to these agents, particularly in gram-negative microorganisms complicates treatment of infections caused by these ...

Surface Contamination by Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria in a Healthcare Facility: Resistance Determinants and Biofilm-Associated Adhesion. [PDF]

Int J Microbiol
Hospital surfaces represent a major reservoir of multidrug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria (MDR‐GNB), which contributes to healthcare‐associated infections. This study characterized the occurrence, resistance determinants, and biofilm‐forming behavior of MDR‐GNB isolated from hospital surfaces in a Moroccan regional hospital.

Emergence of Enterobacteriaceae co-producing CTX-M-15, ArmA and PMQR in Poland [PDF]

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2019
Plasmid-mediated extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), 16S rRNA methylases and quinolone resistance mechanisms (PMQRs) are well-known agents conferring resistance to more than 1 antimicrobial in its group. The accumulation of these agents poses, therefore, a serious risk to public health.The objective of this study was to investigate the presence of ...

Resistance Profiling of Predominant Non-<i>E. coli</i> Enterobacteriaceae Isolated From Humans, Food Animals, and the Environment in the Fako Division of Cameroon. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int
The impact of the current global rising resistance of Enterobacteriaceae to antibiotic agents is of great concern. Detecting and monitoring resistance in these pathogens in humans, animals, and the environment and taking appropriate actions based on results obtained are indispensable to reverse this trend.

High Prevalence of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance in Salmonella enterica Serovars Isolated From Surface Water. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol
Our study reports a high occurrence of PMQR (plasmid‐mediated quinolone resistance) Salmonella in surface water, posing a significant public health risk as these resistant strains can contaminate foods through irrigation potentially leading to outbreaks of severe foodborne illness.
