Genotypic Characterization of Urinary Tract Infections causing bacteria isolates among Adults at Kiambu Level 5 Hospital, Kenya: Selected Extended Spectrum β-Lactamase genes and Biofilm Formation
2024-01-08
Abstract excerpt
The menace of antimicrobial resistance to public health is constantly arising globally. Many pathogenic bacteria use mechanisms such as mutations and biofilm formation, significantly reducing antimicrobial agents' efficacy. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of selected extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESβLs) genes and analyse the biofilm formation abilities of the isolated bacteria...
