Examining the role of <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> Plasmid Types in Disseminating Antimicrobial Resistance

2023-09-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative pathogen responsible for hospital-acquired infections with high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The spread of multidrug-resistant A. baumannii strains, particularly those resistant to carbapenems, has become a global concern. Spread of AMR in A. baumannii is primarily mediated by the acquisition of AMR genes through mobile genetic elements,...
