Molecular Characterization Of Non-Fermenting Gram-Negative Bacilli And Its Virulence Markers From Various Clinical Samples In A Tertiary Care Center, South India

Prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of non-fermenting Gram-negative bacilli isolated from clinical samples at a tertiary care hospital.

INTRODUCTION: We compared the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of non-fermenting gram-negative bacilli (NFGNB) isolated from clinical samples at a Brazilian tertiary care hospital in 2008 and 2013. METHODS: Collected data included patient's name, age, sex, inpatient unit, laboratory record number, type of biological material, culture test result, and antimicrobial susceptibility of...

Isolation and Identification of Non Fermenting Gram Negative Bacilli in A Tertiary Care Hospital

Non-Fermenting Gram-Negative Bacilli (NFGNB )group includes numerous organisms but the ones which are known to cause nosocomial infections are Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumanii, Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) and Stenotrophomonas maltophila .This study was undertaken to identify the various nonfermenters isolated from patients admitted to our hospital, a tertiary care center, a...

Spectrum of Non fermenting gram negative bacilli infection (excluding Pseudomonads ) in tertiary care hospital

Phenotypic Characterization and Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern of Non-fermentative Gram Negative Bacilli from Clinical Samples

Non fermenting gram negative bacteria were considered to be nonpathogenic and commensal of little significance. Recently there has been a tremendous interest in these organisms as they are being isolated from clinical specimens with increasing frequency. So this study aims at isolation, identification and antibiotic susceptibility of non-fermenting gram negative bacilli from various clinical sp...

Detection of Metallo-Beta-lactamase Production in Rare Carbapenem-Resistant Non-fermentative Gram-Negative Bacilli Isolated in a Tertiary Care Hospital, Visakhapatnam, India

Introduction: Non-fermentative Gram-negative bacilli (NFGNB) are occasionally involved in infectious diseases pathology, but have shown resistance to multiple antibiotics and the capability to gain new resistance factors in the hospital environment. The present study was aimed to investigate the antibiotic susceptibility pattern of rare NFGNB isolated from different clinical samples and the pre...
