Two-dimensional PCR for detecting class 1, 2 and 3 integrons

Heliyon, 2022
Integrons can capture and express foreign gene cassettes through site-specific recombination and are important genetic elements in spreading antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria. We have developed a two-dimensional PCR technology (2D-PCR) based on the base quenching probe technology in detecting three major integrons at the same time. The minimum

Prevalence of class 1, 2 and 3 integrons among multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Yazd, Iran

Iranian Journal of Microbiology, 2018
Background and Objectives: Antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an increasing health problem. Integrons are associated with a variety of gene cassettes, which confer resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics.

Wastewater‐Based Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance and Bacterial Communities in Urban and Rural Areas in the Province of Trento (Italy)

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Wastewater from urban and rural areas was analyzed to investigate antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria and resistance genes. ESBL‐Escherichia coli and genes coding for clinically relevant resistances, namely, those to macrolides, carbapenems, and vancomycin, were higher in urban than in rural areas.

Trace levels of sewage effluent are sufficient to increase class 1 integron prevalence in freshwater biofilms without changing the core community.

Water Research, 2016
Most river systems are impacted by sewage effluent. It remains unclear if there is a lower threshold to the concentration of sewage effluent that can significantly change the structure of the microbial community and its mobile genetic elements in a ...

Hospital‐Associated Antimicrobial Resistant Bacteria on 95 Mobile Phones: An International Metagenomic “Phonome” Analysis

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
On average, phones harbored 3.62 of the top 10 killers and 2.49 ESKAPE organisms. In total, 667 VFGs (8621 Hits) and 262 ARGs (2475 Hits) were identified on 95 mobile phones. Mobile phones serve as a platform for horizontal gene transfer and AMR development.

Implication of different replicons in the spread of the VIM-1-encoding integron, In110, in Enterobacterales from Czech hospitals

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundVIM metallo-β-lactamases are enzymes characterized by the ability to hydrolyze all β-lactams. Usually, blaVIM-like genes are carried by class 1 integrons.

Gut Microbiota Alterations Associated With Colonization by Multidrug‐Resistant Organisms in ICU Patients: First Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Microbiota profiling showed colonized critically ill patients had lower values of dominance/evenness (Simpson's index) and richness (Observed), reaching significantly lower values of information (mean difference in Shannon index = –1.18; 95% CI, –1.84 to –0.52; p < 0.001).

Association Between Metallo-β-lactamases and Integrons with Multi-Drug Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates

Journal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2013
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is among the most important pathogens in the nosocomial infections. A genetic mobile element, the integron, is one of the major agents involved in dissemination of multi-drug resistance among gram negative bacteria.
