Correlation between class 1 integron of Escherichia coli and multidrug resistance in lower respiratory tract infection [PDF]
Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2017 Introduction: Class 1 integrons are mobile genetic elements considered to be responsible for the transfer of multidrug resistance. This study aimed to investigate the distribution of type 1 integrons in multidrug-resistantEscherichiacolifrom hospital ...

Impacts of anthropogenic activity on the ecology of class 1 integrons and integron-associated genes in the environment [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2011 The impact of human activity on the selection for antibiotic resistance in the environment is largely unknown, although considerable amounts of antibiotics are introduced through domestic wastewater and farm animal waste.

Prevalence of Class 1 Integron and Antibiotic Resistance among Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Patients Admitted to the Burn Unit at Taleghani Hospital in Ahvaz [PDF]
Majallah-i dānishgāh-i ̒ulūm-i pizishkī-i Arāk, 2015 Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the major etiologic agents of nosocomial infection among burn patients that has high resistance to antibiotics. Integrons can extend antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria.

Environmental Isolate of Rahnella aquatilis Harbors Class 1 Integron. [PDF]
Curr Microbiol, 2016 The paper presents first description of class 1 integron in an environmental strain of Rahnella aquatilis, a rarely isolated Gram-negative bacterium of the family Enterobacteriaceae. The strain was isolated from the Warta river water, Poland. Class 1 integrase gene was detected by a PCR assay.

Definition of the attI1 site of class 1 integrons [PDF]
Microbiology, 2000 Integron-encoded integrases recognize two distinct types of recombination site: attI sites, found in integrons, and members of the 59-base element (59-be) family, found in the integron-associated gene cassettes. The class 1 integron integrase, IntI1, catalyses recombination between attI1 and a 59-be, two 59-be, or two attI1 sites, but events involving ...

Dissemination of Class 1, 2, and 3 Integrons Among Multidrug-Resistant Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenClinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates showed widespread Class 1 and 2 integrons carrying diverse resistance‐associated gene cassettes, including aadB, blaOXA10‐aac(6′)‐II, and aadB‐blaOXA10‐aac(6′)‐Ib, which were strongly associated with antibiotic resistance phenotypes, highlighting the need for enhanced surveillance and targeted infection‐control ...

Resistance integrons: class 1, 2 and 3 integrons [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2015 As recently indiscriminate abuse of existing antibiotics in both clinical and veterinary treatment leads to proliferation of antibiotic resistance in microbes and poses a dilemma for the future treatment of such bacterial infection, antimicrobial resistance has been considered to be one of the currently leading concerns in global public health, and ...
