Validation of Hexaplex Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Assay for the Detection of Carbapenemase Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates From Pediatric Inpatients

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 4, February 2026.
A novel hexaplex recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) method was developed to rapidly and accurately detect five key carbapenemase genes and a Klebsiella pneumoniae‐specific target in a single reaction. This makes it an effective tool for CRKP detection in resource‐constrained environments.

Resistance integrons. Mini review

Caspian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Integrons are a segment of dsDNA that play a major role in bacterial adaptation and evolution. These genetic determinants are known by the presence of three necessary apparatuses: an integrase (intI gene), Pc (a promoter) and attI (a recombination site).

Integron Prevalence and Diversity in Manured Soil [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2011
ABSTRACT The levels of integron abundance and diversity in soil amended with pig slurry were studied. Real-time PCR illustrated a significant increase in class 1 integron prevalence after slurry application, with increased prevalence still evident at 10 months after application.

The contribution of Escherichia coli from human and animal sources to the integron gene pool in coastal waters [PDF]

, 2014
To understand the contribution of animal- and human-derived fecal pollution sources in shaping integron prevalence and diversity in beach waters, 414 Escherichia coli strains were collected from beach waters (BW, n = 166), seagull feces (SF, n = 179 ...

Rapid Typing of Extended‐Spectrum β‐Lactamase (ESBL)‐ and Metallo‐β‐Lactamase (MBL)‐Producing Enterobacterales Using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT‐IR) Spectroscopy

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
Clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae complex were analyzed using FT‐IR spectroscopy and genotyping methods. High concordance was observed, demonstrating the potential of FT‐IR spectroscopy as a rapid screening tool.

IntI2 Integron Integrase in Tn7 [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2002
ABSTRACTIntegrons can insert and excise antibiotic resistance genes on plasmids in bacteria by site-specific recombination. Class 1 integrons code for an integrase, IntI1 (337 amino acids in length), and are generally borne on elements derived from Tn5090, such as that found in the central part of Tn21. A second class of integron is found on transposon

Antimicrobial resistance and class I integrons in Salmonella enterica isolates from wild boars and Bísaro pigs [PDF]

, 2011
The antibiotic resistance phenotype and genotype and the integron type were characterized in 58 Salmonellaenterica isolates recovered from Bísaro pigs and wild boars (20 S. Typhimurium, 17 S. Rissen, 14 S. Enteritidis and 7S. Havana).

Antibiotic Resistance, Biofilm Genes, and smeDEF Efflux Pump in Clinical Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Isolates From Iran

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
Iranian clinical Stenotrophomonas maltophilia isolates showed high susceptibility to trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, minocycline, and levofloxacin, but marked resistance to ceftazidime and ticarcillin‐clavulanate, alongside widespread biofilm production and resistance genes.

Distribution of class 1 integrons in historic and contemporary collections of human pathogenic Escherichia coli.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Integrons play a major role in the evolution and spread of antimicrobial resistance in human pathogens, including Escherichia coli. This study describes the occurrence of class 1 integrons in human pathogenic E.
