Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to identify qnr genes among quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli isolates from defined disease conditions of companion and farm animals obtained in the BfT-GermVet study, and to gain insight into their localization and the organization of the qnr gene regions. METHODS: The qnr genes were detected by PCR and confirmed by sequencing. qnr-positive isolates were checked for...
