The prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants among clinical isolates of ESBL or AmpC-producing<i>Escherichia coli</i>from Chinese pediatric patients

Abstract excerpt

Three kinds of PMQR determinants (qnr genes, aac(6')-Ib-cr, and qepA) have been discovered and shown to be widely distributed among clinical isolates. To characterize the prevalence of PMQR determinants in ESBL or AmpC-producing E. coli clinical isolates in Chinese children, a total of 292 ESBL or AmpC-producing E. coli clinical isolates collected from five children's hospitals in China from 2005 to 2006 were...
