Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To study the association between number and positions of mutations with MICs of fluoroquinolone non-susceptible Haemophilus influenzae. METHODS AND RESULTS: More than 40% of 48 H. influenzae isolated from nursing home residents were not susceptible to fluoroquinolone. Amino acid changes in the quinolone resistance determining regions, and correlation with MICs and inhibition zone diameters were analysed....
