L3, pretherapy parent isolate; L5, L6, L10, L12, L15, and L18, posttherapy isolates. T39 (parent strain) and LX1054 (acrB mutant) were from Lacroix et al. (16).
gyrA, Piddock et al. (26); gyrB, Gensberg et al. (9); MAR, 2- to 256-fold more resistant to quinolones and six or seven unrelated agents than L3.
−CCCP, accumulation without CCCP; +CCCP, accumulation in the presence of CCCP; SD, standard deviation; ND, not done.
