چکیده
conclusions it seems that besides the variety and prevalence of blatem and blactx, enormous mechanisms such as porin and leaking systems (efflux pumps) are responsible for the information of the a. baumannii resistance to disinfectants. the study on an accurate consideration of the resistance in strains and other microorganisms is advised. results in the current study, 131 a. baumannii isolates (22.3%) out of 588 were studied. the level of resistance to various antibiotics was in the range of 69.4% to 100%. the frequencies of blatem and blactx genes were 3.2% and 19.4%, respectively. mic50% and mic90% of imipenem and meropenem antibiotics were 32 ± 1 µg/ml and 64 ± 1 µg/ml, respectively (p < 0.9). however no resistance to glutaraldehyde was observed. different bands of mdr strains were observed in the pcr product by electrophoresis. background excessive consumption of antimicrobial materials in hospitals is considered as the main encoder leading to the emergence, development and acquisition of new bacterial resistance to beta-lactamase. objectives owing to the lack of proper information regarding the mechanism of the bacterial resistance to antibiotics and responsible genes in the country, the current study aimed to consider the resistance or sensitivity of the acinetobacter baumannii multi drug resistant (mdr) isolates facing 2% glutaraldehyde. the study was conducted in the selected intensive care units in tehran hospitals, iran, in 2013. materials and methods in this study conducted over a period of 10 months, a. baumannii species were isolated by bacterial culture following biochemical tests from intensive care units (icus) of some hospitals in tehran, iran (fayazbaksh, taleghani, imam khomeini, valiasr, labafinejad). the resistance and sensitivity of the isolates to antibiotics were considered according to the clinical and laboratory standard institute clsi (2012) guidelines. by multiplex pcr method, blactx and blatem genes were detected and finally, mdr strains were treated with 2% glutaraldehyde. pcr was used for each strain of mdr using specific primers.

INTRODUCTION Pseudomonas aeruginosa is as an important opportunistic human pathogen, which is associated with several clinical infections that are usually difficult to treat because of resistance to multiple antimicrobials. The production of extendedspectrum ß-lactamases (ESBLs) is an important mechanism of ß-lactam resistance. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of ESBLs, a...

Background: Acinetobacter baumannii, is an opportunistic pathogen and is responsible for numerous nosocomial infections. In recent years, this microorganism has been resistant to a wide range of antibiotics. One of the most important mechanisms of resistance in this microorganism is production of metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs). Objectives: The aim of this study was to detect VIM- and IMP-type ...
