Increasing Quinolone Resistance in Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis
Until recently, Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis has remained sensitive to most antibiotics. However, national surveillance data from Denmark show that quinolone resistance in S. Enteritidis has increased from 0.8% in 1995 to 8.5% in 2000. These data support concerns that the current use of quinolone in food animals leads to increasing resistance in S. Enteritidis and that action should...
متن کاملQuinolone resistance in Campylobacter.
Sir, The Campylobacter Sentinel Surveillance Scheme Collaborators (CSSSC) highlight the importance of antimicrobial resistance in Campylobacter jejuni isolated in England and Wales, reiterating the previously described risk for quinolone resistance of foreign travel.1,2 Overall and foreign travel associated rates of quinolone resistance of 19% and 53% (noted as 55% in the abstract) are in keepi...
متن کاملQuinolone resistance mechanisms in pneumococci.
Quinolones are widely used in the treatment of respiratory infections, in large part because of their activity against Streptococcus pneumoniae and other commonly encountered respiratory tract pathogens. Pneumococcal isolates that are resistant to these "respiratory quinolones" have now begun to emerge. Resistance is attributable to mutations affecting the intracellular targets of these drugs, ...
متن کاملThe effects of increasing levels of quinolone resistance on in-vitro activity of four quinolones.
A panel of 266 clinically isolated Gram-positive cocci and Gram-negative bacilli with varying levels of resistance to ciprofloxacin were analysed for susceptibility to Du-6859a, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, temafloxacin and nalidixic acid. Staphylococci were divided into ciprofloxacin-susceptible, moderately resistant and highly resistant subgroups. Du-6859a was the most potent quinolone against a...
متن کاملQuinolone resistance in Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli is an important pathogen of animals and humans that causes great financial cost in food production by causing disease in food animals. The quinolones are a class of synthetic antimicrobial agents with excellent activity against Escherichia coli and other Gram-negative bacteria used in human and veterinary medicine. Different quinolones are used to treat various conditions in an...
