Keywords: | Enterobacteriaceae;Pseudomonas aeruginosa;Integrones;Acinetobacter;Argentina | Issue Date: | Nov-2009 | Journal: | Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy | Abstract: | The expanded-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) gene bla(VEB-1), identified worldwide in Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, is associated with either class 1 integrons or repeated elements. We report here the first association of bla(VEB-1a) with the insertion sequence ISCR2 in six Acinetobacter species isolates recovered from Argentina. That genetic structure was likely at the origin of the mobilization of this ESBL gene. |
