摘要

We detected integrons in 298 of 1106 Escherichia coli isolates obtained from the feces of pigs, chicken, ducks and elks. Among the sources there was higher number of integrons detected in the isolates of pigs. No integron was found in the isolates of gooses. Detection of lot of integrons in these isolates discovers the possibility of spread of antibiotic resistance genes in the environment.
