Investigating the prevalence of class 1, 2, and 3 integrons in carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from burn wound infections.

Acinetobacter baumannii is a significant antibiotic-resistant pathogen with high morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients, especially in burn units. Acquiring mobile genetic elements, such as integrons, is significant in developing multidrug-resistant (MDR) hospital isolates. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of class 1, 2, and 3 integrons in A.
