qnrB is one of several qnr family genes that encode proteins protecting bacterial DNA gyrase from fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Its detection identifies organisms with reduced quinolone susceptibility, often associated with other resistance mechanisms.
Detection of qnrB in molecular testing helps guide antibiotic selection and supports infection control. Sample type is typically a culture isolate or direct clinical specimen.
