Environmental Isolate of Rahnella aquatilis Harbors Class 1 Integron [PDF]
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.

Molecular differentiation of common promoters in Salmonella class 1 integrons [PDF]
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.

Analysis for prevalence and physical linkages amongst integrons, ISEcp1, ISCR1, Tn21 and Tn7 encountered in Escherichia coli strains from hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients in Kenya during a 19-year period (1992-2011) [PDF]
Background: We determined the prevalence and evidence for physical linkage amongst integrons, insertion sequences, Tn21 and Tn7 transposons in a collection of 1327 E. coli obtained over a 19-year period from patients in Kenya.

Class 1 Integrons in Salmonella Strains Causing Traveler's Diarrhea [PDF]
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).
