Detection of virulence factors and β lactamase encoding genes among the clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa has emerged as a significant opportunistic bacterial pathogen that causes nosocomial infections in healthcare settings resulting in treatment failure throughout the world. This study was carried out to compare the relatedness between virulence characteristics and β...

| description | Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa has emerged as a significant opportunistic bacterial pathogen that causes nosocomial infections in healthcare settings resulting in treatment failure throughout the world. This study was carried out to compare the relatedness between virulence characteristics and β-lactamase encoding genes producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Methods: A total of 120 P. aeruginosa isolates were obtained from both paediatric and adult patients of Selayang Hospital, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Phenotypic methods were used to detect various virulence factors (Phospholipase, Hemolysin, Gelatinase, DNAse, and Biofilm). All the isolates were evaluated for production of extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) as well as metallo β-lactamase (MBL) by Double-disk synergy test (DDST) and E-test while AmpC β-lactamase production was detected by disk antagonism test. |
