| Abstract: | Antibiotic resistance of enterobacterial strains from population isolated in Krasnodar region is rather often controlled by the "plasmid" genes. The conclusion is based on using the colony hybridization with [32P]-DNA fragments of plasmids, carrying the genetic determinants of antibiotic resistance, as a method for antibiotic resistance, genes screening. Kanamycin resistance in the majority of strains is coded by APH (3') II gene, streptomycin resistance by APH (3") gene, chloramphenicol resistance by CATI, sulphonilamide resistance by DHPS type II gene. Tetracycline resistance of the studied enterobacterial strains is not connected with the widespread genetic determinants of a new class tetracycline resistance. |
