Genetic relatedness of serial rectal isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii in an adult intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Kuwait.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2020

Al-Hashem Ghayda, Rotimi Vincent O, Albert M John

Abstract excerpt

Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. A. baumannii colonizes many parts of the body including the gastrointestinal tract. Endemic and epidemic strains are polyclonal. There is no clarity on the origin of polyclonality of A. baumannii. The objective of the study was to define the genetic relatedness of serial isolates and the origin of polyclonality. Serial...
