The highly diverse and complex plasmid population found in <i>Escherichia coli</i> colonising travellers to Laos and their role in antimicrobial resistance gene carriage
2022-08-24
Abstract excerpt
Increased colonisation by antimicrobial resistant organisms is closely associated with international travel. This study investigated the diversity of mobile genetic elements involved with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) gene carriage in extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) -producing Escherichia coli that colonised travellers to Laos. Long-read sequencing was used to reconstruct complete plasmid sequences from...
