Identification of qnrVF in a Multidrug-Resistant Vibrio furnissii Clinical Strain
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 We found a new qnr gene, qnrVF1, carried by a multidrug resistance plasmid in a clinical Vibrio furnissii isolate. QnrVF1 exhibits 44.6% to 72.5% similarity in identity with other Qnr family proteins. QnrVF alleles are mainly encoded by chromosomes of V.

QNR Optimization based Pansharpening [PDF]
IGARSS 2008 - 2008 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2008 Quality Without Reference (QNR) index can be used to globally assess the quality of pansharpened images without the need of a reference high resolution multispectral (MS) image. The QNR index relies on local calculation of the Q4 index. Exploiting the local Q4 calculation property of the QNR index, we propose an injection model for pansharpening.

Phylogenetic Analysis of Chromosomally Determined Qnr and Related Proteins [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013 ABSTRACT qnr genes were discovered on plasmids by their ability to reduce quinolone susceptibility, but homologs can be found in the genomes of at least 92 Gram-negative, Gram-positive, and strictly anaerobic bacterial species.

Characterization of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica isolated from broiler chickens [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2022 Background and Aim: Antibiotic-resistant Salmonella is a public health concern. Fluoroquinolones and extended-spectrum beta-lactams are widely used for the treatment of Salmonella infections.

Hyperspectral pansharpening using QNR optimization constraint [PDF]
2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing, 2009 This paper presents a method for pansharpening of low resolution Hyperspectral (HS) images. The proposed method is based upon the optimization of both the spectral and spatial quality criteria of the QNR quality assessment index. The simultaneous optimization of the spectral and spatial quality constraints is obtained by means of the Pareto solutions ...

Functional verification of computationally predicted qnr genes [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2013 The quinolone resistance (qnr) genes are widely distributed among bacteria. We recently developed and applied probabilistic models to identify tentative novel qnr genes in large public collections of DNA sequence data including fragmented metagenomes.By using inducible recombinant expressions systems the functionality of four identified qnr candidates ...

Dissemination of ESBL and Qnr determinants in Enterobacter cloacae in Algeria [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2008 The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence and diversity of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) in Enterobacter cloacae clinical isolates collected from Algerian hospitals and to verify the association with qnr genes.MICs were determined by Etest for isolates giving positive double-disc synergy tests, and all isolates were screened by ...
