Tolerance of foodborne Acinetobacter spp. to sanitizer agents
Introduction: The bacteria Acinetobacter spp. are extremely relevant in clinical settings. Recently, they have emerged as potential food-borne opportunistic pathogens. Their ability to form biofilms contributes to antibiotic resistance by generating an environment that facilitates the acquisition and transfer of resistance genes.

Transformation and mobilization of cloning vectors in Acinetobacter spp [PDF]
R300B-, RSF1010-, and RK2-derived plasmids were introduced into Acinetobacter sp. strain HO1-N and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus BD413 by transformation and conjugal mobilization. The transformation frequencies of BD413 were 4.2 X 10(6) to 6.3 X 10(6) transformants per micrograms of DNA per 10(9) recipient cells.

Antimicrobial Resistance inAcinetobacterspp. andPseudomonasspp
ABSTRACTThe nonfermenting bacteria belonging toAcinetobacterspp. andPseudomonasspp. are capable of colonizing both humans and animals and can also be opportunistic pathogens. More specifically, the speciesAcinetobacter baumanniiandPseudomonas aeruginosahave been recurrently reported as multidrug-resistant and even pandrug-resistant in clinical isolates.
