Research Article: Prevalence of Quorum Sensing and Virulence Factor Genes Among Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated from Patients Suffering from Different Infections and Their Association with Antimicrobial Resistance
Introduction:
P. aeruginosa is one of the most life-threatening and resistant bacteria according to the World Health Organization (WHO), for which new antibiotics are urgently needed. P. aeruginosa is also one of the most prevalent nosocomial pathogens worldwide. It affects people who are susceptible, such as those with postoperative immune suppression or immunosuppressed patients. Since this organism exhibits virtually all known mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, nosocomial infections caused by it are frequently challenging…
