Point mutations in the topoisomerase (DNA gyrase A) gene are known to be associated with fluoroquinolone resistance in Campylobacter. Recent studies have shown that an efflux pump encoded by cmeABC is also involved in decreased susceptibilities to fluoroquinolones, as well as other antimicrobials. Genome analysis suggests that Campylobacter jejuni contains at least nine other putative efflux pu...
OBJECTIVES To determine the fluoroquinolone resistance determinants in Salmonella enterica serovar Schwarzengrund from imported foods. METHODS Antibiotic susceptibility of Salmonella Schwarzengrund to 16 antibiotics was examined using disc agar diffusion and Etest. Quinolone resistance determinants were examined by sequence analysis of gyrA, gyrB, parC and parE, PCR amplification of qnrA, qnr...
China is one of the countries with the highest burdens of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant tuberculosis (TB) globally. Nevertheless, knowledge about the prevalence and molecular characterization of FQ-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from this region remains scant. In this study, 138 M. tuberculosis isolates determined by the agar proportion susceptibili...
BACKGROUND This study aimed to analyze the association of mutation patterns in gyrA and gyrB genes and the ofloxacin resistance levels in clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates sampled in 2009 from East China. METHODS The quinolone resistance-determining region of gyrA/B were sequenced in 192 M. tuberculosis clinical isolates and the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 95 ofloxa...
INTRODUCTION The efficacy of chemotherapy can be compromised by drug resistance. This study was undertaken to describe the resistance profiles and fluoroquinolone resistance mechanism of non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) isolated from humans and poultry in West Bank, Palestine. METHODOLOGY One hundred and fifty-one isolates of NTS, obtained from humans (71) and poultry (80), collected between Se...
The potential for selection in vitro of Legionella pneumophila mutants resistant to fluoroquinolones was investigated. Six distinct clinical isolates of L. pneumophila were subcultured in subinhibitory concentrations of ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, clinafloxacin, trovafloxacin and moxifloxacin until MICs increased at least eight-fold. The numbers of serial passages required in microbroth diluti...
Mutations in quinolone targets were studied together with quinolone efflux pump activation and plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants in nalidixic-acid-resistant isolates of Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas veronii. Among 135 clinical Aeromonas spp. isolated from stools of patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, 40 nalidixic acid-resistant strains belonging to A. caviae and A. veroni...
BACKGROUND Fluoroquinolones are broad-spectrum antibiotics widely used in the treatment of bacterial infections such as Staphylococcus aureus isolates. Resistance to these antibiotics is increasing. MATERIAL/METHODS The occurrence of mutations in the grlA and gyrA loci were evaluated in 69 fluoroquinolone-resistant S. aureus isolates from 2 teaching hospitals of Tehran University of Medical S...
Resistance to antibiotics, especially clarithromycin, is the major cause of the failure to eradicate Helicobacter pylori. There are few studies in children concerning fluoroquinolone activity against H. pylori. Primary resistance to antibiotics including fluoroquinolones was studied in 55 H. pylori strains isolated from Japanese children. DNA sequences of the gyrA gene in fluoroquinolone-resist...
Fluorochinolones are a class of broad-spectrum antimicrobials in the treatment of several infections, including those caused by Escherichia coli. Due to the increasing resistance of bacteria to antimicrobials, an understanding of fluoroquinolone resistance is important for infection control. The aim of this study was to determine susceptibility of clinical E. coli strains to fluoroquinolones an...
