Occurrence and Distribution of Environmental Pseudomonas aeruginosa From Hospitals in Bangladesh Reveals Diverse Strain Families, Multidrug Resistance, and Biofilm Formation.

Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major nosocomial pathogen capable of developing multidrug resistance, forming biofilms, and disseminating antimicrobial resistance genes via mobile genetic elements. This study investigated the occurrence, antimicrobial resistance, lecB sequence diversity, and biofilm-forming capacity of environmental P. aeruginosa isolates from three hospitals in Jashore, Bangladesh. Among 231...
