Molecular Analysis of Some Virulence Genes of Escherichia Coli Isolates from Wound and Burn Samples in Kirkuk City
E. A. Magthab
Abstract:Background: Gram-negative infections caused by non-spore producing E. coli that are facultatively anaerobic have been recognized as serious infections linked to higher mortality and significant costs associated with medical care.
Aim: The goal of this study was to determine whether or not a number of E. coli strains are capable of producing virulence genes by using a technique called real time PCR.
Materials and Methods: 155 people with burns and wounds had their cultures obtained, and susceptibil… Show more
