Nalidixic acid—a good marker of fluoroquinolone resistance mechanisms in Escherichia coli

Nalidixic acid—a good marker of fluoroquinolone resistance mechanisms in Escherichia coli

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to evaluate how ciprofloxacin, pefloxacin, and nalidixic acid disks perform in screening fluoroquinolone resistance mechanisms in 278 Escherichia coli isolates collected from a prospective clinical material. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of ciprofloxacin...
