Abstract:
Molecular methods that enable the detection of antimicrobial resistance determinants are critical surveillance tools that are necessary to aid in curbing the spread of antibiotic resistance. The objectives of the study were to determine the prevalence of multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae species isolated from the urine samples in a tertiary care hospital and to detect their drug resistance patterns and their genetic characterization.
Keywords: Uropathogenic Enterobacteriaceae, Global public health problems, Molecular methods, Surveillance tools
