Abstract excerpt
Ciprofloxacin resistance is common both among animal and human Campylobacter jejuni isolates. Resistant isolates are shown to persist even without selection pressure. To obtain further insight on effects of ciprofloxacin exposure on C. jejuni we compared transcriptional responses of both C. jejuni wild-type strain 81-176 (ciprofloxacin MIC 0.125 mg l(-1)) and its intermediate ciprofloxacin-resistant variant P3...
