High carriage of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes by ESBL-producing and fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli recovered from animal waste dumps

Molecular Biology Reports
There has been a rise in the consumption of fluoroquinolones in human and veterinary medicine recently. This has contributed to the rising incidence of quinolone resistance in bacteria.

Detection of acrA, acrB, aac(6′)-Ib-cr, and qepA genes among clinical isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The distribution of drug resistance among clinical isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae has limited the therapeutic options. The aim of this study was to report the prevalence of quinolone resistance genes among E.

Distribution of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance in Gram-negative bacteria from a tertiary hospital in Nigeria

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2016
Background: Until recently, mechanisms of resistance to quinolones in Gram-negative bacteria were believed to be only chromosome encoded. However, emergence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) has been reported worldwide.

Fluoroquinolone resistance among fecal extended spectrum βeta lactamases positive Enterobacterales isolates from children in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2023
Background Fluoroquinolones have been, and continue to be, routinely used for treatment of many bacterial infections. In recent years, most parts of the world have reported an increasing trend of fluoroquinolone resistant (FQR) Gram-negative bacteria ...

Determinants of Antimicrobial Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates From Intensive Care Patients in Latvia

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Acinetobacter baumannii is a leading nosocomial pathogen in intensive care units (ICUs), often resistant to multiple antibiotics. Data from the Baltic region remain scarce, limiting infection control and stewardship strategies. Methods We conducted an integrated phenotypic–genotypic analysis of A.

Characterization of Integrons and Quinolone Resistance in Clinical Escherichia coli Isolates in Mansoura City, Egypt

International Journal of Microbiology, 2021
Escherichia coli is a common pathogen in both humans and animals. Quinolones are used to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, but resistance genes emerged.

Multidrug resistant commensal Escherichia coli in animals and its impact for public health [PDF]

, 2013
After the era of plentiful antibiotics we are alarmed by the increasing number of antibiotic resistant strains. The genetic flexibility and adaptability of Escherichia coli to constantly changing environments allows to acquire a great number of ...

Analysis of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance (PMQR) Genes Among Escherichia coli Strains Isolated from Patients with Urinary Tract Infection in Eastern Turkey

International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Invention
Aim: Urinary tract infections are a common occurrence worldwide, with females being more susceptible than males.  Infections can manifest as asymptomatic bacteriuria or more severe forms such as sepsis.
