Association of carbapenem and multidrug resistance with the expression of efflux pump-encoding genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates
25 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
Efflux pumps play an important role in the emergence of antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. The present study aimed to assess the expression of the MexAB-OprM, MexCD-OprJ, MexEF-OprN, and MexXY-OprM efflux pumps in carbapenem-resistant and multidrug-resistant (MDR) P. aeruginosa strains isolated from clinical specimens between June 2019 and January 2022 in Ardabil city. The presence of efflux...
