Prevalence of aac(6′)-Ie-aph(2″)-Ia resistance gene and its linkage to Tn5281 in Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium isolates from Tabriz hospitals

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: High-level gentamicin resistance (HLGR: MIC ≥ 500 µg/ml) in Enterococci is mediated by aminoglycoside modifying enzymes which is mainly encoded by aac(6′)-Ie-aph(2″)-Ia gene. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of aac(6′)-Ie-aph(2″)-Ia gene in clinical isola...
