The susceptibilities of the S .flexneri strains to quinolones were measured by the disk-diffusion method. It was found that most S .flexneri strains were susceptible to norfloxacin and ciprofloxacin, but resistant to nalidixic acid. To study the correlation between gyrA mutations and quinolones resistance, a fragment within the gyrA gene was amplified by PCR. The SSCP （Single-Strand Conformation Polymorphism） analysis was applied to detect mutations in PCR products of different strains. The mutations were then confirmed by DNA sequencing. Altogether, two types of mutation were revealed, in which one type was single mutation （ C42-T）, and the other was double mutations （ C42-T and A54- G）. By statistical analysis, C42-T （encoding Ser83-keu substitution） was shown to have correlation with nalidixic-acid resistance in the clinical strains of Shigella, while A54-G （encoding Asp87-Gly substitution） was shown to have correlations with both norfloxacin resistance and ciprofloxacin resistance.展开更多

We found that considering the influence of the resistance to ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, enrofloxacin, ofloxacin, pefloacin mesylate and norfloxacin nicotinate of the five types of fluoroquinolones to GyrA mutation of animal Salmonella, the resistance of pefloacin mesylate had the most significant effect, while the resistance of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride and enrofloxacin were the least significant factors. Nearly half of the Salmonella supports such a rule that the MIC of norfloxacin nicotinate reaching 64 or 128 might lead to the mutation Ser83→Phe, MIC exceeding 512 might lead to the mutation Ser83→Gly; 60% of the sample supported that the MIC of enrofloxacin reaching 32 or 64 might lead to the mutation Asp87 →Asn. 80% of them agreed to the fact that the MIC of neither ciprofloxacin hydrochloride under 64 nor pefloacin mesylate below 512 might result in the gene mutation in 119 site. All Salmonella isolates supported the conclusion that the mutation Alal19→Val took place, if and only if the MIC of norfloxacin nicotinate exceeded 512.展开更多
