An In Vitro Deletion in ribE Encoding Lumazine Synthase Contributes to Nitrofurantoin Resistance in Escherichia coli

23 Sept 2014

Abstract excerpt

Nitrofurantoin has been used for decades for the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTIs), but clinically significant resistance in Escherichia coli is uncommon. Nitrofurantoin concentrations in the gastrointestinal tract tend to be low, which might facilitate selection of nitrofurantoin-resistant (NIT-R) strains in the gut flora. We subjected two nitrofurantoin-susceptible intestinal E. coli strains (ST540-p...
