A method is described for the testing of strains of Sh. sonnei for antibiotic resistance, colicine type and drug resistance transfer using a multiple inoculator.The examination of 731 strains of Sh. sonnei isolated from convalescent cases and their family contacts showed that about 5% of individuals were excreting organisms which differed from the infecting strain by a single transferable antibiotic resistance determinant. It is suggested that the acquisition of such resistance may occur in 13% of family incidents.

ABSTRACT Plasmid-mediated resistance to quinolones is increasingly reported in studies of Enterobacteriaceae. Using a PCR-based strategy, a series of gram-negative species were screened for qnrA-like genes. Shewanella algae, an environmental species from marine and fresh water, was identified as its reservoir. This is a one of the very few examples of progenitor identification of an acquired antibiotic resistance gene.
