Abstract excerpt
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the diversity of the genes encoding aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes and their association with class 1 integrons in three pan-European clones of Acinetobacter baumannii. The study collection included 106 multidrug-resistant strains previously allocated to clone I (n = 56), clone II (n = 36) and clone III (n = 6) and a heterogeneous group of other strains (n =...
