Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance: a Multifaceted Threat
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 10/14/09
Strahilevitz J et al. – The contribution of these genes to the emergence of quinolone resistance is being actively investigated. Several factors suggest their importance in this process, including their increasing ubiquity, their association with other resistance elements, and their emergence simultaneous with the expansion of clinical quinolone resistance. Of concern, these genes are not yet being taken into account in resistance screening by clinical microbiology laboratories.
