Characterization, Prevalence and Antibiotic Resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii Infecting Foodstuff
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is a highly virulent bacterium. It causes opportunistic and nosocomial infections and is a threat to healthcare settings. It has also developed multidrug resistance (MDR) capacity. The nosocomial bacteria and antibiotic resistance are primordial and a significant public health concern. These bacteria and their threat can be prevented by reducing infected food...
متن کاملMolecular Investigation of Resistance to Disinfectants in Acinetobacter Baumannii Isolates Collected From Qazvin Hospitals, Iran (2017)
Background Acinetobacter baumannii is an important agent of nosocomial infections. There are several reports on the presence of disinfectants-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii developed by qacE and qacEΔ1 genes in medical centers. Objective The current study aimed to assess the relevant antimicrobial susceptibility and to determine the frequency of genes encoding resistance to disinfectants i...
متن کاملDefining resistance in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-Acinetobacter baumannii complex strains.
We read with great interest the recent publication of Tien and colleagues in which they describe the antimicrobial susceptibilities of a large number of Acinetobacter baumannii-Acinetobacter calcoaceticus strains isolated from a medical center in Taiwan (1). They suggested that antimicrobial susceptibility was negatively associated with virulent potential because more-susceptible strains were r...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance Patterns and Molecular Typing of Acinetobacter Baumannii Strains Isolated from Burn Patients in Iran
Background and Aims: Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is an important multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen frequently causing various nosocomial infections and is a serious threat to burn patients. These infections are usually caused by the outbreak strains. The aim of this study was to show antibiotic resistance pattern and molecular typing of A. baumannii genes isolates collected ...
متن کاملDrug Resistance Patterns and Genotyping of Acinetobacter baumannii Strains Isolated from Patients Admitted to Shahrekord Teaching Hospitals Using REP-PCR
Background & objectives: In recent years, Acinetobacter baumannii has been shown to be associated with several nosocomial infections, including pneumonia, bacteraemia, urinary tract infections, wound infection and meningitis. This organism can survive in the hospital environment and rapidly develops resistance to many antibiotics. The molecular genotyping can increase our knowledge about the sp...
