Detection of blaoxa genes and identification of biofilmproducing capacity of Acinetobacter baumannii in a tertiary teaching hospital, Klaten, Indonesia

ABSTRACT

@#Introduction: Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is commonly found as an agent of nosocomial infections and demonstrates a high antibiotic resistance due to its carbapenemase production. The objectives of this study were to explore the antibiotic resistance pattern, the presence of OXAs genes and the biofilm-producing capacity of A. baumannii isolated from clinical specimens.
