Class 1 Integrons in Resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp., US Hospitals
We examined Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. from US hospitals for class 1 integrons. Of 320 isolates, 181 (57%) were positive; association of integrons with resistance varied by drug and organism. Thus, determining integron epidemiology will improve understanding of how antibacterial resistance determinants spread in the United States.
متن کاملStudy of class 1 integrons in multidrug-resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from different hospitals in Karachi
Objective(s): Escherichia coli is the key pathogen in the family producing ESBL (extended spectrum β-lactamase) and associated with community-acquired infections. Therefore, this study was planned to determine the antibiotic susceptibility pattern of uropathogenic E. coli, prevalence of the ESBL gene group and class 1 integrons.Materials and Methods: Clinical isolates of uropathogenic E. coli w...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of orf513-bearing class 1 integrons in multiresistant clinical isolates from Argentinean hospitals.
The spread of orf513-bearing class 1 integrons is associated with bla(CTX-M-2) in gram-negative clinical isolates in Argentina, with In35 being the most frequently found integron (74%). Among 65 isolates without bla(CTX-M-2), only one harbored a novel orf513-bearing class 1 integron with the dfrA3b gene. The finding of orf513 not associated with class 1 integrons in two gram-positive strains in...
متن کاملdetection of class 1, 2, and 3 integrons among klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from children in tehran hospitals
background: ctx-m-type β-lactamases are increasingly becoming the predominant esbls globally in recent years. integrons are genetic elements which can integrate gene cassettes, usually antibiotic resistance genes. objectives: the aims were to determine antibiotic susceptibility and to detect genes encoding ctx-m-1 group enzymes and class 1, 2, and 3 integrons among the klebsiella pneumoniae iso...
متن کاملDetection of gene cassettes in Tn402-like class 1 integrons.
Amplification of the gene cassettes in class 1 integrons by PCR using primers in the 5 conserved segment (5 -CS) and the 3 -CS (7, 8) has been used in hundreds of studies to identify integron-associated resistance genes (Fig. 1A). Equivalent PCR primers that detect cassettes in class 2 integrons, i.e., Tn7 family transposons (18), are also widely used. The approach used to detect integrons in a...
