Quinolone resistance among<i>Salmonella</i>Kentucky and Typhimurium isolates in Tunisia: first report of<i>Salmonella</i>Typhimurium ST34 in Africa and<i>qnrB19</i>in Tunisia

Abstract

This is the first report that describes not only the current epidemiological situation of the quinolone resistance in S. Kentucky and Typhimurium isolated from various sources and regions in Tunisia, but also, the genetic resistance determinants associated with phenotypic antibiotic resistance and the molecular mechanisms of their quinolone-resistance. Also, we provide the first report of S. Typhimurium ST34 in Africa, and the first report of qnrB19 in Salmonella in Tunisia.
