Fluorescence-based detection of natural transformation in drug resistant <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>
2018-03-02
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial agent with a high propensity for developing resistance to antibiotics. This ability relies on horizontal gene transfer mechanisms occurring in the Acinetobacter genus, including natural transformation. To study natural transformation in bacteria, the most prevalent method uses selection for the acquisition of an antibiotic resistance marker in a target ch...
