Acinetobacter spp. recovered from Lebanese patients over a 1-year period using phenotypic …

Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) represents a global threat owing to its ability to
resist most of the currently available antimicrobial agents. Moreover, emergence of …

In this study, antimicrobial resistance patterns, carbapenemase production, carbapenem-
hydrolysing class D OXA-type β-lactamase (CHDL)-encoding genes and ISAba insertion …

Multidrug resistance, especially carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter bacteria is a global
healthcare concern. However, available data on the phenotypic and genotypic …
