Comparative genotypic characterization related to antibiotic resistance phenotypes of clinical carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii MTC1106 (ST2) and MTC0619 (ST25).

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of Acinetobacter baumannii in nosocomial infections and its remarkable ability to develop antimicrobial resistance have been a critical issue in hospital settings. Here, we examined the genomic features related to resistance phenotype displayed by carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii (CRAB) MTC1106 (ST2) and MTC0619 (ST25). RESULTS: Resistome analysis of both strains revealed that MTC1106...
