Prevalence of Aminoglycoside Resistance Genes in Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the major causes of nosocomial infections and is resistant to most available antibiotics. Aminoglycosides remain as drugs of choice for treatment of Acinetobacter infections yet resistance to aminoglycosides has increased in the recent years. OBJECTIVES The present study investigated the prevalence of genes encoding aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes...

Background and purpose: Acinetobacter is a pathogen that could cause nosocomial infections. The present study aimed at determining Acinetobacter cases in clinical cultures of patients hospitalized in Tabriz Imam Reza Hospital to determine the frequency of the most common oxa genes causing drug resistance in these specimens. Materials and methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, cli...

Background and Aims: Acinetobacter baumannii is mostly a cause of septicaemia, pneumonia and urinary tract infections following hospitalization of patients with more severe illnesses. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and detection of the most prevalent virulence genes in A. baumannii isolated from hospital infections of two largest hospitals of Tehran, Iran. Materials and ...
