Popis: | Purpose. Biofilm formation and resistance to last-line antibiotics have restricted chemotherapy options toward infection eradication. Methodology. Fifty K. oxytoca isolates were collected from patients with antibiotic-associated haemorrhagic colitis (AAHC). Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted and phenotypic biofilm formation was assessed using microtitre tissue plate (MTP) assay. PCR was employed to amplify the adhesins, extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), carbapenemase and colistin resistance genes. The expression of adhesin genes was evaluated using quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). Results/Key findings. The previous antibiotic consumption and hospitalization (P |
