Molecular Biology Of Class 1 Mobile Integrons
, 2017 Summary. The rapid spread of antibiotic resistance has significantly limited treatment options, increased mortality rates of infections and has become a major clinical and public health problem. Integrons are genetic platforms carried by plasmids or contained within a transposon, and their role in the dissemination of resistance genes among bacteria ...

Incidence of Class 1 Integrons in a Quaternary Ammonium Compound-Polluted Environment [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2005 ABSTRACTSamples of effluent and soil were collected from a reed bed system used to remediate liquid waste from a wool finishing mill with a high use of quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) and were compared with samples of agricultural soils. Resistance quotients of aerobic gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria to ditallowdimethylammomium chloride ...
