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 …

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

A total of 189 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were collected in 2011 from a teaching
hospital in Chongqing, China. Susceptibility data showed strains carrying integrons were …

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

Integron carriage by 36 epidemiologically unrelated Acinetobacter baumannii isolates
collected over an 11-year period from patients in six different Italian hospitals was …

The goal of this work was to systematically characterize and detect class 1, 2, and 3
integrons with many antibiotic resistance A. baumannii strains collected from a clinical …

Purpose: As an opportunistic pathogen, Acinetobacter baumannii causes various
nosocomial infections. In recent years, the increasing cumulative infection outbreaks …

The class 1 integron is an important driver of the nosocomial dissemination of multidrug-
resistant (MDR) bacteria, such as Acinetobacters. In this study, we characterized the gene …

The relationship between the presence and types of integrons and the antimicrobial
susceptibility patterns of Acinetobacter baumannii was investigated. A total of 134 non …

Background The aims of this study were to understand the molecular epidemiology of
integron-associated gene cassettes in Acinetobacter baumannii across four hospitals in …
