Abstract excerpt
Objectives: To investigate the mechanisms of tigecycline resistance in isogenic Acinetobacter baumannii isolate pairs as well as 65 unique clinical A. baumannii isolates obtained during the MagicBullet clinical trial from Greece, Italy and Spain. Methods: A. baumannii isolates were subjected to WGS and the regulatory genes of resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND)-type efflux pumps were analysed. MICs were...
