Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this study was to identify the molecular basis of quinolone resistance of Campylobacter isolates recovered from duck meats. Sixty-one isolates from duck meat samples were studied using sequence analysis of the gyrA gene, and PCR assays were used to identify the presence of the CmeABC efflux pump and its restored sensitivity in the presence of efflux-pump inhibitors. High-level resistance to...
