Multiplex PCR for identification and β-lactam resistance gene detection in clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii
The multiplex PCR assay developed here provides a rapid and reliable method for A. baumannii identification and resistance gene detection, outperforming conventional methods in terms of speed and accuracy. The high resistance rates observed highlight the urgent need for effective diagnostic tools and infection control strategies to combat multidrug-resistant A. baumannii.
