Acinetobacter spp. susceptibility to tigecycline: a worldwide perspective [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2007 Sir, In the April 2007 issue of the Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, Navon-Venezia et al. reported high resistance rates to tigecycline in multiple clones of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii (n 1⁄4 82). The authors found that 66% (54/82) were resistant to tigecycline (MIC 8 mg/L), 12% (10/82) were intermediate (MIC 4–6 mg/L) and ...

Efflux-Mediated Antibiotic Resistance in Acinetobacter spp [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2011 ABSTRACT Among Acinetobacter spp., A. baumannii is the most frequently implicated in nosocomial infections, in particular in intensive care units. It was initially thought that multidrug resistance (MDR) in this species was due mainly to horizontal acquisition of resistance genes ...
