Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC)-PCR analysis as a reliable evidence for suspected Shigella spp. outbreaks

Bakhshi, Bita; Afshari, Nasim; Fallah, Fatemeh.
Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (3), 2018
Abstract Background Shigellosis remains a serious public health problem and an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The aim of this study was to characterize fliC and the genetic relatedness of Shigella spp. isolated during a one-year period from children in a suspected outbreak in Tehr...

The importance of integrons for development and propagation of resistance in Shigella: the case of Latin America

Barrantes, Kenia; Achí, Rosario.
Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (4), 2016
Abstract In Latin America, the disease burden of shigellosis is found to coexist with the rapid and rampant spread of resistance to commonly used antibiotics. The molecular basis of antibiotic resistance lies within genetic elements such as plasmids, transposons, integrons, genomic islands, etc., which a...
