Prevalence of Antibiotic Resistome in Ready-to-Eat Salad [PDF]
, 2020 Ready-to-eat salad harbors microorganisms that may carry various antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, few studies have focused on the prevalence of ARGs on salad, thus underestimating the risk of ARGs transferring from salad to consumers. In this

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2022 Objective: Shewanella algae is a zoonotic marine bacterium that causes a variety of infections in immunocompromised patients or those who have been exposed to seawater. The development of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) resistance in S. algae are

Screening Foodstuffs for Class 1 Integrons and Gene Cassettes [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2015 Antibiotic resistance is one of the greatest threats to health in the 21st century. Acquisition of resistance genes via lateral gene transfer is a major factor in the spread of diverse resistance mechanisms. Amongst the DNA elements facilitating lateral transfer, the class 1 integrons have largely been responsible for spreading antibiotic resistance ...

Molecular differentiation of common promoters in Salmonella class 1 integrons [PDF]
Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2007 The integron is a mobile gene element which harbors antibiotic-resistance gene cassettes capable of site-specific integration. Among the four known types of integrons, the class 1 integron has been associated with multidrug-resistance in pathogenic bacteria. These gene cassettes have been the focus of a series of studies.

Evolution of class 1 integrons: Mobilization and dispersal via food-borne bacteria. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Class 1 integrons have played a major role in the global dissemination of antibiotic resistance. Reconstructing the history of class 1 integrons might help us control further spread of antibiotic resistance by understanding how human activities influence

“Distribution and functional identification of complex class 1 integrons”
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2013 The emergence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases and plasmid-mediated resistance to quinolones has been previously found to be associated with the dissemination of complex class 1 integrons in Argentina. In this study, we analyzed their distribution through time and evaluated the functionality of the Orf513 protein, which is the putative recombinase of ...

Class 1 Integrons in Salmonella Strains Causing Traveler's Diarrhea [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2006 Traveler's diarrhea (TD) is a frequent health problem among travelers abroad. Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., Salmonella spp., and Campylobacter spp. are among the most common causes of TD (3, 5). The antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella strains is an increasing problem (15).

Broad-spectrum β-lactamases among Enterobacteriaceae of animal origin: molecular aspects, mobility and impact on public health [PDF]
, 2010 Broad-spectrum β-lactamase genes (coding for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases) have been frequently demonstrated in the microbiota of food-producing animals. This may pose a human health hazard since these genes may be present
