A Comprehensive Study of the Relationship between the Production of β-Lactamase Enzymes and Iron/Siderophore Uptake Regulatory Genes in Clinical Isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii

Background.The iron/siderophore uptake system (IUS) involved in the Acinetobacter baumannii pathogenicity. However, IUS’s role in antibiotic resistance and the production of β-lactamase enzymes of A. baumannii are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the production of β-...
