Abstract
Transferable quinolone resistance has not previously been reported in Argentina. Here we describe three complex class 1 integrons harboring the novel allele qnrB10 in a unique region downstream of orf513 , one of them also containing aac ( 6 ′)- Ib - cr within the variable region of integrons. The three arrays differed from bla CTX-M-2 -bearing integrons, which are broadly distributed in Argentina.Keywords
