Popis: | Infections with P. aeruginosa are three times more common in people with diabetes than in non-diabetic individuals. Investigations disclosing the distinguishing traits of P. aeruginosa strains to cause respiratory and wound infection in diabetics is limited. Wound swab and sputum from infected diabetic patients were used for the isolation of P. aeruginosa. The confirmed isolates were evaluated for their virulence factor production, antibiotic susceptibility, and clonal relationship. The study confirmed the increased virulence of sputum isolates characterized by their multidrug resistant nature, strong biofilm formation at 72h [(p |
