Background. Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) is an important multidrug-resistant extraintestinal pathogen, which can cause many kinds of infections. Integrons may play a crucial role in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes.

Dynamics of class 1 integrons in aerobic biofilm reactors spiked with antibiotics
Class 1 integrons are strongly associated with the dissemination of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. However, little is known about whether the presence of antibiotics affects the abundance of integrons and antibiotic resistance genes during biological

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.

Integrons in the Acid Mine Drainage Enironment
Integrons are a two-part gene capture and expression system found in a wide diversity of bacterial lineages. The Integron is implicated in the spread and development of multiple-antibiotic resistance in clinical and animal production environments.

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.

Integrons: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]
SUMMARY Integrons are versatile gene acquisition systems commonly found in bacterial genomes. They are ancient elements that are a hot spot for genomic complexity, generating phenotypic diversity and shaping adaptive responses. In recent times, they have had a major role in the acquisition, expression, and dissemination of antibiotic ...

Detection of integrons in worldwide nosocomial isolates of Acinetobacter spp.
ObjectiveTo examine the distribution of integrons in genotypically unrelated worldwide multiresistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter spp.MethodsThe presence and genetic location of class 1, 2 and 3 integrons were examined in a genotypically ...

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).
