Abstract:World Health Organization reports that the current use of ciprofloxacin as a broad-spectrum antibiotic shows a pattern of high bacterial resistance in many countries. Klebsiella pneumoniae is known as a Gram-negative bacterium that most often causes infection and is resistant to antibiotics. This study aimed to find patterns of resistance mechanisms based on biofilm production and porin permeability activity in K. pneumoniae clinical specimens from patients at RSUD Prof. Dr Margono Soekardjo Purwokerto, Indone… Show more
