Abstract excerpt
Despite a trend of declining consumption, resistance to co-trimoxazole has increased during a 12-year period in Stockholm. The molecular background to this surprising development was investigated by using PCR to screen for integrons and specific resistance genes, followed by sequence analysis of selected integrons, in 105 clinical urinary isolates of Gram-negative bacteria selected partly for trimethoprim...
