Triclocarban Influences Antibiotic Resistance and Alters Anaerobic Digester Microbial Community Structure [PDF]
Triclocarban (TCC) is one of the most abundant organic micropollutants detected in biosolids. Lab-scale anaerobic digesters were amended with TCC at concentrations ranging from the background concentration of seed biosolids (30 mg/kg) to toxic ...

The function of integron-associated gene cassettes in Vibrio species: The tip of the iceberg [PDF]
The integron is a genetic element that incorporates mobile genes termed gene cassettes into a reserved genetic site via site-specific recombination. It is best known for its role in antibiotic resistance with one type of integron, the class 1 integron, a

Bacteremia caused by an Acinetobacter junii strain harboring class 1 integron and diverse DNA mobile elements [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Infections caused by Acinetobacter junii are rarely reported. However, some outbreaks of septicemia in neonates and pediatric oncology patients, as well as meningitis, peritonitis, and ocular infection have been described.
