Rapid detection and molecular survey of blaVIM, blaIMP and blaNDM genes among clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii using new multiplex real-time PCR and melting curve analysis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Acinetobacter baumannii is a cosmopolitan bacterium that is frequently reported from hospitalized patients, especially those patients who admitted in the intensive care unit. Recently, multiplex real-time PCR has been introduced for rapid detection of the resistance genes in clinical isolates of bacteria. The current study aimed to develop and evaluate multiplex real-time PCR to detect common...
