Detection of integrons in worldwide nosocomial isolates of Acinetobacter spp.
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 1999 ObjectiveTo examine the distribution of integrons in genotypically unrelated worldwide multiresistant clinical isolates of Acinetobacter spp.MethodsThe presence and genetic location of class 1, 2 and 3 integrons were examined in a genotypically ...

Treatment of Acinetobacter spp. infections
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2003Acinetobacter spp. are predominantly nosocomial pathogens of growing importance. One of their important features is antimicrobial resistance that includes beta-lactams, aminoglycosides and quinolones. Imipenem, considered the most effective drug against Acinetobacter spp., is not universally active against clinical isolates and therapeutic options are ...

Biodegradation of Carbazole by Newly Isolated Acinetobacter spp.
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2011In this study, two bacterial isolates designated Alp6 and Alp7 were isolated from soil collected from dye industries and screened for their ability to degrade carbazole. Growing cells of the isolates Alp6 and Alp7 could degrade 99.9% and 98.5% of carbazole, respectively in 216 h.

Hospital infection with Acinetobacter spp.: an increasing problem
Journal of Hospital Infection, 1991During the last few years, among nosocomial pathogens, Acinetobacter spp. have given rise to an increasing number of nosocomial infections. Acinetobacter strains are widely distributed in nature; in hospitals, the human skin is the likely source for most outbreaks of hospital infections.

Radiation resistance of acinetobacter SPP
Radiation Physics and Chemistry, 1995Abstract The radiation resistance of 78 different strains of Acinetobacter sp. 42 from clinical isolates and 36 from other sources were compared with 15 clinical isolates and 12 other strains from Denmark. None of the Canadian strains was as resistant as resistant-enhanced Danish strains. Four strains had D 10 values of 3.1–3.6 kGy. Irradiated and

Importance of Acinetobacter spp.
2008An enormous number of bacterial species exist in nature and the human environment with important roles in natural chemical and biological cycles involved in the agricultural aspects of food and industrial activity. However, only a relatively limited number of microbes are recognized as important pathogens for humans and causes of clinical infections ...

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2012
Acinetobacter species are aerobic, glucose non-fermenting gram-negative rods, and ubiquitous in the environment. Acinetobacter spp. can survive for months on dry surfaces. Acinetobacter spp. have been grown from skin, pharynx, sputum, urine and feces. The most common Acinetobacter infection is pneumonia.

Acinetobacter spp. in food and drinking water
Food Microbiology, 2021Acinetobacter spp. has emerged as a pathogen of major public health concern due to their increased resistance to antibiotics and their association with a wide range of nosocomial infections, community-acquired infections and war and natural disaster-related infections.

The 16S-23S intergenic spacer regions of four Acinetobacter genomic species belonging to the A. calcoaceticus-A. baumannii (Acb) complex, i.e. genomic species 1 (A. calcoaceticus), genomic species 2 (A. baumannii), genomic species 3 and Tjernberg and Ursing (TU) genomic species 13, have been cloned and sequenced.

Acinetobacter spp. and time-kill studies
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2007Sir, Multidrug-resistant isolates of Acinetobacter spp. have become a worldwide threat for hospitalized patients in recent years. Two papers recently published in JAC referred to in vitro tests of combinations destined to kill carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter isolates.
