Background and purpose To detect and characterize class 1 integrons among carbapenem-
resistant strains of Acinetobacter spp. at University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC), Kuala …

Seventy‐seven Acinetobacter isolates were recovered from patients in a Korean hospital
during the period from November to December 1998. The isolates were genotyped using …

Background Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter spp. acquire antimicrobial agent-
resistance genes via class 1 integrons. In this study, integrons were characterized to …

Acinetobacter species, particularly Acinetobacter baumannii, are important opportunistic
pathogens responsible for nosocomial infections. They are often resistant to a wide range of …

Objective To examine the distribution of integrons in genotypically unrelated worldwide
multiresistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter spp. Methods The presence and genetic …

The epidemiology of emerging antibiotic resistance genes in Asia is inadequately defined
and studies within the major pools of transmissible genes such as integron gene cassettes …

Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to global health. Recently Acinetobacter
has been identified as an important bacteria to the acquisition of antibiotic resistance. The …

Background: Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a critical pathogen with high
morbidity and mortality in long-term hospitalized patients who stay in intensive care units …

Nosocomial infections caused by multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter pose a serious problem
in many countries. This study aimed at determining the antibiotic susceptibility patterns and …

Materials and Methods: 100 isolates of A. baumannii were gathered since 2012-2013 from
ICU of three educational hospitals of Hamadan, Iran. After phenotypic identification of …
