Prevalence of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance and Aminoglycoside Resistance Determinants among Carbapeneme Non-Susceptible Enterobacter cloacae
BACKGROUND Simultaneous resistance to aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones in carbapeneme non-susceptible (CNS) isolates will inevitably create problems. The present study was performed to characterize the prevalence of the plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants (QRDs) and aminoglycoside resistance determinants (ARDs) among the CNS Enterobacter cloacae (E. cloacae) isolates in a Chi...
متن کاملPrevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants QnrA, QnrB, and QnrS among clinical isolates of Enterobacter cloacae in a Taiwanese hospital.
The prevalence of three plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants, QnrA, QnrB, and QnrS, among 526 nonreplicate clinical isolates of Enterobacter cloacae collected at a Taiwanese university hospital in 2004 was determined by PCR and colony hybridization, and the association of Qnr with the IMP-8 metallo-beta-lactamase was investigated. Eighty-six (16.3%) of all isolates were qnr positi...

متن کاملOrigin of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinant QnrA.
Plasmid-mediated resistance to quinolones is increasingly reported in studies of Enterobacteriaceae. Using a PCR-based strategy, a series of gram-negative species were screened for qnrA-like genes. Shewanella algae, an environmental species from marine and fresh water, was identified as its reservoir. This is a one of the very few examples of progenitor identification of an acquired antibiotic ...
متن کاملDetection of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants and qnrS expression in Enterobacteriaceae clinical isolates.
INTRODUCTION Rapid dissemination of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) has been reported in clinical isolates. METHODOLOGY A total of 149 clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae were collected in Beijing and screened for PMQR genes using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Real-time quantitative PCR was used to study the expression of qnrS. RESULTS The rates of qnr and aac(6')-Ib-cr ...
