Antibiotic resistance • MDR is mediated by plasmid The genes for antibiotic resistance in S typhi and S paratyphi are acquired into a region called an integron from Escherichia coli and other gram-negative bacteria via plasmids. • Quinolone resistance is frequently mediated by single point mutations in the quinolone-resistance–determining region of the gyrA gene. • Nalidixic acid resistant: MIC of fluoroquinolones for these strains was 10 times that for fully susceptible strains.
