Ciprofloxacin-Resistant Neisseria meningitidis, Delhi, India

Decreased susceptibility of Neisseria meningitidis isolates to ciprofloxacin emerged from an outbreak in Delhi, India. Results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing of the meningococcal isolates to ciprofloxacin and further sequencing of DNA gyrase A quinolone-resistance-determining region confirmed the emergence of ciprofloxacin resistance in the outbreak.

Antibiotic susceptibility of invasive Neisseria meningitidis isolates from 1995 to 2008 in Sweden—the meningococcal population remains susceptible SARA THULIN HEDBERG, PER OLCÉN, HANS FREDLUND & MAGNUS UNEMO

The susceptibility to 7 antibiotics was determined for all Swedish invasive Neisseria meningitidis isolates from 1995 to 2008 (N = 717). In general, these remain highly susceptible to the antibiotics recommended for use. Accordingly, penicillin G remains effective for the treatment of invasive meningococcal disease and ciprofloxacin appropriate for prophylaxis. Introduction The continuing incre...

In vitro assessment of the further potential for development of fluoroquinolone resistance in Neisseria meningitidis.

We examined the potential for the development of fluoroquinolone resistance in Neisseria meningitidis by cultivating two clinical isolates of meningococci in the presence of concentrations of ciprofloxacin at and about the predetermined MIC. The quinolone resistance determining regions (QRDRs) of gyrA and parC of 50 stable quinolone-resistant mutants derived in vitro were sequenced and compared...

Population-Based Surveillance of Neisseria meningitidis Antimicrobial Resistance in the United States

Background.  Antimicrobial treatment and chemoprophylaxis of patients and their close contacts is critical to reduce the morbidity and mortality and prevent secondary cases of meningococcal disease. Through the 1990's, the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance to commonly used antimicrobials among Neisseria meningitidis was low in the United States. Susceptibility testing was performed to asce...

Shifts in the Antibiotic Susceptibility, Serogroups, and Clonal Complexes of Neisseria meningitidis in Shanghai, China: A Time Trend Analysis of the Pre-Quinolone and Quinolone Eras

BACKGROUND Fluoroquinolones have been used broadly since the end of the 1980s and have been recommended for Neisseria meningitidis prophylaxis since 2005 in China. The aim of this study was to determine whether and how N. meningitidis antimicrobial susceptibility, serogroup prevalence, and clonal complex (CC) prevalence shifted in association with the introduction and expanding use of quinolone...

The NorM efflux pump of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis recognizes antimicrobial cationic compounds.

In Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis, we identified a gene that would encode a protein highly similar to NorM of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Y. Morita et al., Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 42:1778-1782, 1998). A nonpolar insertional mutation in either the gonococcal or meningococcal norM gene resulted in increased bacterial sensitivity to compounds harboring a quaternary ammonium on...
