“…More recently, using the same multiplex PCR method, qnrB13, qnrB14, and qnrB15 (GenBank accession numbers ABX72042, ABX72044, and ABX72227, respectively), differing from qnrB1 in four, five, and five amino acids, respectively, were identified among Citrobacter freundii strains from South Korea (190). Using degenerate primers for the detection of qnrB in a collection of isolates of Enterobacteriaceae from Kuwait City, Kuwait, Cattoir et al identified qnrB7 in Enterobacter cloacae and qnrB8 in C. freundii (23). These genes differ from qnrB1 by 4 and 11 amino acids, respectively (GenBank accession numbers EU043311 and EU043312, respectively).…”
