Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen that can develop various
resistance mechanisms to many antibiotics. However, little is known about how it evolves …

Aims Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial pathogen known to be multidrug-resistant
(MDR), especially to drugs of the carbapenem class. Several factors contribute to resistance …

ABSTRACT β-Lactam antibiotics exploit the essentiality of the bacterial cell envelope by
perturbing the peptidoglycan layer, typically resulting in rapid lysis and death. Many Gram …

Purpose Acinetobacter baumannii is an important pathogen in the nosocomial infections
worldwide. Combining with carbapenemases, efflux pumps and outer membrane proteins …

Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a nosocomial pathogen with an increased
prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains. The role of the outer membrane protein A (OmpA) …

Acinetobacter baumannii 37662 is a carbapenem-susceptible isolate with bla OXA-51-like
as the sole carbapenemase gene. Following selection with meropenem (MEM) at a …

Background Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the main causes of healthcare-associated
infections that threaten public health, and carbapenems, such as meropenem, have been a …

Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii has gradually
become a global challenge. To identify the genes involved in carbapenem resistance in A …

Objective Acinetobacter baumannii has become an important problem because of the high
drug resistance rate. The aim of this study was to assess the antimicrobial resistance profile …

Objectives Acinetobacter baumannii outer membrane protein A (AbOmpA) is involved in
bacterial pathogenesis. However, the role of AbOmpA in the antimicrobial resistance of A …
