“…As the maximum antibiotic concentration in this study was 512 μg/mL, the same value was used in calculations with MIC or MBEC values higher than 512 μg/mL, and these values have been presented with the inequality sign. CIP, Ciprofloxacin; MEP, Meropenem; GEN, Gentamicin; AMK, Amikacin; COL, Colistin; KAN, Kanamycin; TET, Tetracycline; ERY, Erythromycin; CHL, Chloramphenicol; PIP, Piperacillin; AZT, Aztreonam; CFT, Cefoxitin A total of 99.2% of P. aeruginosa isolates in Korea have at least 1 of 4 TTSS-related genes, which is in harmony with earlier findings for human, environmental and bovine isolates of P. aeruginosa (Wiehlmann et al, 2007;Selezska et al, 2012;Szmolka et al, 2012). Of the 122 P. aeruginosa isolates, 68.8% of isolates were non-cytotoxic/invasive strain (exoU-/exoS+), while only 8.2% of isolates were cytotoxic/non-invasive strain (exoU+/exoS-).…”
