Phenotypic Carbapenemase Production and blaOXA detecting by PCR in Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from a Hospital of Infectious Diseases from North-East Romania
Introduction: In the last 40 years, Acinetobacter baumannii has been among the bacteria known to acquire multiple mechanisms of antibiotic QUINCEANERA resistance and, as a result, it is now one of the pathogens involved in healthcare-associated infections with multidrug resistant strains.Our study aimed to assess the production of carbapenemases in
