Abstract
Pseudomonas mendocina carrying a novel class 1 integron containing an IMP-8 gene was isolated from an inanimate surface in a female ward sanitary facility of the Hospital Infante D. Pedro, Aveiro, Portugal. Hybridization with the integrase gene (intI1) and 16S rDNA revealed that the integron is chromosomally located. Here we report for the first time the presence of an IMP-8 metallo-beta-lactamase gene in the Pseudomonas genus. (c) 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.Entities:
