The Prevalence Rates of Colistin Resistance Among Third‐Generation Cephalosporin‐Resistant E. coli Isolates From Thai Patients

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Drug‐resistant infections, such as colistin resistance, are reportedly increasing due to the inappropriate use of antibiotics, lack of good control, and the use of excessive quantities of antibiotics. Colistin resistance has been observed in bacteria of the order Enterobacterales exhibiting resistance to third‐generation cephalosporins or carbapenems ...

Differential distribution of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes in clinical enterobacteria with unusual phenotypes of quinolone susceptibility from Argentina [PDF]

, 2013
We studied a collection of 105 clinical enterobacteria with unusual phenotypes of quinolone susceptibility to analyze the occurrence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) and oqx genes and their implications for quinolone susceptibility.

Prevalence of Plasmid‐Mediated Quinolone Resistance Genes in Escherichia coli Isolates From Colonic Biopsies of Iranian Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Emerging evidence suggests that ciprofloxacin and other quinolones can be effectively used as adjuncts to immunosuppressive therapy in managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Clinical isolates of Enterobacterales frequently exhibit quinolone resistance.

Technical specifications for a EU‐wide baseline survey of antimicrobial resistance in bacteria from aquaculture animals

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract The European Commission requested scientific and technical assistance in the preparation of a EU‐wide baseline survey of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria from aquaculture animals. It is recommended that the survey would aim at estimating the occurrence of AMR in Aeromonas spp.

Genomic characterization of extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamase‐producing and carbapenem‐resistant Escherichia coli from urban wastewater in Australia

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2024.
This study investigates extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamase‐producing and carbapenem‐resistant Escherichia coli isolates from Sydney's wastewater. These isolates exhibit resistance to critical antibiotics and harbor novel resistance mechanisms. The findings highlight the importance of wastewater‐based surveillance in monitoring resistance beyond the ...
