Global Epidemiology and Mechanisms of Resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus Complex
Acinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticus complex is the most commonly identified species in the genus Acinetobacter and it accounts for a large percentage of nosocomial infections, including bacteremia, pneumonia, and infections of the skin and urinary ...

A global view on carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
To give an update on the molecular epidemiology and global distribution of carbapenemase encoding genes, we subjected 313 carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from 114 study centers in 47 countries in five world regions, Africa, Asia ...

Colistin Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii: Molecular Mechanisms and Epidemiology
Acinetobacter baumannii is recognized as a clinically significant pathogen causing a wide spectrum of nosocomial infections. Colistin was considered a last-resort antibiotic for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant A.

Inhalatory and intravenous colistin in treating ventilator-associated pneumonia due to acinetobacter species: Should we combine them? [PDF]
Background/Aim. Acinetobacter is one of the most common causes of nosocomial infections, especially ventilatorassociated pneumonia (VAP). Considering the increased presence of multidrug-resistant microorganisms and the lack of novel antibiotics, colistin

Multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii as an emerging concern in hospitals
Acinetobacter baumannii has become a major concern for scientific attention due to extensive antimicrobial resistance. This resistance causes an increase in mortality rate because strains resistant to antimicrobial agents are a major challenge for ...

Bacteriophage-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are resensitized to antimicrobials
We characterized two bacteriophages, ΦFG02 and ΦCO01, against clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii and established that the bacterial capsule is the receptor for these phages.
