2016-01-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) has received considerable attention recently. Data analysis in JIPMER revealed 75% of the Enterobacteriaceae isolates to be ciprofloxacin-resistant in 2012. Few reports regarding the prevalence of PMQR are available from India. Hence, the present study was carried out to ascertain the prevalence of PMQR genes among clinical isolates of ciprofloxaci...
