Abstract excerpt
The presence of antibiotic resistance gene cassettes in class I integrons was investigated in 24 sulfamethoxazole-resistant and -sensitive Acinetobacter isolates derived from two Danish freshwater trout farms. Integrons were detected in five isolates from one of the fish farms, and their inserts were characterised by DNA sequencing. Each isolate contained a dhfrI gene cassette encoding resistance to trimethoprim...
