Cartography of opportunistic pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes in a tertiary hospital environment

2019-05-21

Abstract excerpt

There is growing attention surrounding hospital acquired infections (HAIs) due to high associated healthcare costs, compounded by the scourge of widespread multi-antibiotic resistance. Although hospital environment disinfection is well acknowledged to be key for infection control, an understanding of colonization patterns and resistome profiles of environment-dwelling microbes is currently lacking. We report the f...
