Sub-inhibitory gentamicin pollution induces gentamicin resistance gene integration in class 1 integrons in the environment
Abstract Antibiotics at sub-inhibitory concentrations are often found in the environment. Here they could impose selective pressure on bacteria, leading to the selection and dissemination of antibiotic resistance, despite being under the inhibitory threshold. The goal of this study was to evaluate t...
