Abstract excerpt
We looked for the presence of gyrA mutations in seven fluoroquinolone-resistant French clinical isolates of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli. Three of the five isolates of C. jejuni and the two isolates of C. coli had high-level resistance to nalidixic acid (MICs 128-256 microg/ml) and ciprofloxacin (MICs 32 microg/ml). A gyrA mutation was found in all these isolates leading to the following...
