[ 1 ] - The impact of Grammosciadium platycarpum Boiss. & Hausskn. extract on oqxA efflux pump gene expression in antibiotic resistant clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae using real time PCR

Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections, especially wound infection after surgery. One of the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in K. pneumoniae strains, especially ciprofloxacin, is the presence of efflux pump. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-efflux activity of Grammosciadium platycarpum Boiss. & Hausskn. extrac...
