Metallo-β-lactamases are resistance determinants of increasing clinical relevance in Gram-
negative bacteria. Because of their broad range, potent carbapenemase activity and …

Objectives This study investigated the prevalence of diverse Ambler class β-lactamase-
encoding genes in 40 carbapenem-insensitive Acinetobacter baumannii isolates collected …

The development of resistance is a compelling reason for reviewing administration of
antibiotics. Recently, most Acinetobacter infections are caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) …

We investigated antibiotic resistance levels among bla NDM-positive (n= 9) and-negative
(n= 65) A. baumannii clinical isolates collected in 2010 and 2015 from Alexandria Main …

Biofilm formation is a well-known pathogenic mechanism in infections caused by
Acinetobacter baumannii. Recently, a biofilm synthesis-associated gene has been found in …

Several studies have revealed the existence of diverse microorganisms in the atmosphere
especially around urban areas. A major problem encountered in the literature is the lack of …

Nowadays hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) in intensive care units (ICUs) caused by
Acinetobacter calcoaceticus–baumannii complex (Acb) is emerging as one of the …
