Abstract:
Objective To study the distribution of CTX-M-ESBLs and class Ⅰ integron in enterobacter cloacae resistant to third generation cephalosporins,and discuss the relationship between CTX-M-ESBLs and class Ⅰ integron. Methods K-B test for resistance;DDST and PCR for CTX-M-(ESBLs);PCR,nested-PCR and sequence analysis for finding class Ⅰ integron carrying CTX-M-ESBLs gene cassette. Results Among 37 strains,there are 21 isolates producing CTX-M-ESBLs,20 isolates with class Ⅰ integron and 13 isolates carrying CTX-M-ESBLs as well as class Ⅰ integron.In 3 isolates: CH4,CH11 and Q1,each class Ⅰ integron haboured CTX-M-ESBLs gene cassette. Conclusions There is few report on class Ⅰ integron carrying CTX-M-ESBLs,which caused more dangers of horizontal transmission of ESBLs and was important factor to nosocomial outbreak of multiresistant clinical isolates.
