Comparative analyses of Gram-negative bacteria isolated from cancer patients with bacteraemia at the Uganda Cancer Institute

2026-07-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) exacerbates bacteraemia in cancer patients, particularly in low-resource settings. At the Uganda Cancer Institute, high rates of Enterobacterales producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) have been reported, with DNA-based detection of bla genes limited to PCR. This study aimed to determine whether bacterial genomic DNA shipped at ambient temperature from...
