Molecular characterisation of multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa from a private hospital in Durban, South Africa
Background: Multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa pose a clinical challenge globally. This study delineated the molecular mechanisms of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa isolated from a single private hospital in Durban, South Africa and ascertained clonal...
