Genetic and biochemical characterization of a novel metallo-beta-lactamase, TMB-1, from an Achromobacter xylosoxidans strain isolated in Tripoli, Libya [PDF]

, 2012
An Achromobacter xylosoxidans strain from the Tripoli central hospital produced a unique metallo-β-lactamase, designated TMB-1, which is related to DIM-1 (62%) and GIM-1 (51%). bla was embedded in a class 1 integron and located on the chromosome. The TMB-

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

Diversity of Gene Cassette Promoters in Class 1 Integrons from Wastewater Environments [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT The diversity of gene cassette promoters in class 1 integrons was investigated in 47 strains isolated from wastewaters. The weak PcW and PcH1 variants predominated, suggesting that, similar to clinical environments, high rates of gene cassette recombination, rather than high expression of gene cassettes, have been preferentially ...

On‐site pilot‐scale advanced oxidation pretreatment of hospital wastewater: assessment of pharmaceuticals, pathogens, antibiotic resistance genes and acute ecotoxicity

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Hospital premises generate wastewater containing a wide spectrum of contaminants, such as pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and pathogenic microorganisms, whilst plenty of them are classified under the antibiotic resistant bacteria (ΑRΒ) category.

Detection of Gene Cassettes in Tn 402 -Like Class 1 Integrons [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2007
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. ​(Fig.1A).1A). Equivalent PCR primers that detect cassettes in class 2 integrons, i.e., Tn7 family transposons (18), are also ...

The occurrence of antimicrobial resistance and class 1 integrons among commensal isolates from infants and elderly persons [PDF]

, 2009
Background The aim of our study was to compare the presence of the intI1 gene and its associations with the antibiotic resistance of commensal Escherichia coli strains in children with/without previous antibiotic treatments and elderly hospitalized ...
