Prevalence of integrons, blaCTX-M and blaTEM resistance markers among ESBL-producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates: first report of genomic blaCTX-M from India.

Abstract excerpt

Integrons have been observed to be frequently associated with uropathogenic bacteria. This study aimed at 1) determining the prevalence of class 1 integrons among ESBLl-producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli, and 2) analyzing resistance genes associated with different phylogenetic groups of the integron-positive isolates with special reference to bla(CTX-M) and bla(TEM). Twenty-three ESBL-producing E. coli were...
