Antibiotic resistance in the environment, with particular reference to MRSA [PDF]

, 2008
The introduction of β-lactam antibiotics (penicillins and cephalosporins) in the 1940s and 1950s probably represents the most dramatic event in the battle against infection in human medicine.

Establishment of multiplex PCR for detection of genes related to Quinolone resistance

Vietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2018
Background/aims: It has been shown that quinolone resistance arises due to mutations in the quinolone resistance-determining regions of the drug targets.

Increased quinolone resistance among typhoid Salmonella isolated from Egyptian patients

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2014
Introduction: Typhoid fever is endemic in Egypt; and quinolones are the empirical treatment of choice. There are very limited data reporting quinolone resistance among Egyptian typhoidal Salmonella isolates.

Mechanisms of quinolone resistance in Salmonella [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2001
As in other Gram-negative bacteria, mechanisms of resistance to quinolones in Salmonella include target gene mutations, active efflux, and decreased outer membrane permeability. However, the exact contribution of these individual mechanisms to resistance, which may nevertheless interplay to reach high-level resistance, has not yet clearly been defined ...

Epidemiology of resistance to quinolones in Salmonella [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2001
Fluoroquinolones account for about 11% of antimicrobial prescriptions in human medicine worldwide and represent the drug of choice for the treatment of a wide range of human infectious diseases. They were introduced into veterinary medicine in Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s and in the USA in 1995.

Characterization of Vibrio fluvialis qnrVC5 gene in native and heterologous hosts: Synergy of qnrVC5 with other determinants in conferring quinolone resistance

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Resistance of various pathogens towards quinolones has emerged as a serious threat to combat infections. Analysis of plethora of genes and resistance mechanisms associated with quinolone resistance reveals chromosome-borne and transferable determinants ...

Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...

Transferable mechanisms of quinolone resistance are more frequent among enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolates displaying low-level quinolone resistance

, 2023
This study analysed the mechanisms of quinolone resistance among enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) in a periurban area of Lima, Peru. The susceptibility to nalidixic acid and ciprofloxacin, the role of Phe-Arg-b-Naphtylamyde inhibitable-(PAbN ...

HOW DOES QUINOLONES ANTIBOTIC RESISTANCE DEVELOP? [PDF]

Bulletin of Pharmaceutical Sciences. Assiut University, 2020
The quinolone antibiotics arose in the early 1960s, with the first example having a narrow spectrum of activity with unfavourable pharmacokinetics. Over time, the development of new quinolone antibiotics has led to improved equivalents with an expanded ...

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...
