Correlation of <i>gyr</i> Mutations with the Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations of Fluoroquinolones among Multidrug-Resistant <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> Isolates in Bangladesh
Fluoroquinolone (FQ) compounds—moxifloxacin (MOX), levofloxacin (LEV), and ofloxacin (OFL)—are used to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) globally. In this study, we investigated the correlation of <i>gyr</i> mutations among <i>Mtb</i> isolates with the MICs of M...

D94G mutations showed the highest MICs for MOX, LEV, and OFL, ranging between 4.0 and 8.0 μg/mL, 4.0 and 16.0 μg/mL, and 16.0 and 32.0 μg/mL, respectively; while the most common substitution of A90V showed the lowest ranges of MICs (1.0–4.0 μg/mL, 2.0–8.0 μg/mL, and 4.0–32.0 μg/mL, respectively).
