Role of biofilm-specific antibiotic resistance genes PA0756-0757, PA5033 and PA2070 inPseudomonas aeruginosa

Abstract: To evaluate the presence of biofilm-specific antibiotic-resistant genes, PA0756-0757, PA5033 and PA2070 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from clinical samples in Tamil Nadu. For this cross-sectional study, 24 clinical isolates (included pus, urine, wound, and blood) were collected from two diagnostic centers in Chennai from May 2015 to February 2016. Biofilm formation was assessed using microtiter dish biofilm formation assay and minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentrations … Show more

“…Due to the increased resistance to antibiotics in the treatment of infections caused by biofilm-forming strains of P. aeruginosa, the treatment of infections becomes very difficult (Jennings et al, 2015). In the study conducted by Manohar et al (2018), 8 of 24 P. aeruginosa strains isolated from various clinical cases were found positive for biofilm production. Furthermore, in conclusion of the conducted antibiogram test 63% of the strains were found to be resistant to gentamicin, 71% to ciprofloxacin, and 50% to meropenem.…”

“…, PA0757, PA2070 and PA5033 gene entities responsible for bio lm-related antibiotic resistance in isolates were investigated with method reported byManohar et al (2018). After imaging, 1130, 1011, 1355, 1320 bp bands were evaluated as positive for PA0756, PA0757, PA2070 and PA5033 gene entities, respectively.…”
