Abstract
Objective: The increase of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii), especially carbapenem-resistant strains, is challenging for treating infections. This study investigated the antibiotic resistance pattern and frequency of carbapenem resistance genes (oxacillinase and metallo-beta-lactamase) in A. baumannii.
Results: In this study, 100 bacterial isolates were collected from clinical samples from different hospitals in Isfahan, central of Iran. Of 100 samples of bloodstream, urine, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), wound, and trachea, 60 bacteria were identified as A. baumannii. The results showed that 100% of the selected isolates were resistant to cefotaxime, ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, piperacillin-tazobactam, and meropenem. Based on the antibiotic resistance pattern, 25 isolates were chosen for PCR analysis targeting blaOXA-51, blaOXA-23, blaOXA-58, blaNDM, blaIMP, and blaVIM genes PCR results revealed that among the selected isolates, 15 (60.0%) harbored the blaOXA-23 gene, 23 (92.0%) contained the blaOXA-51 gene, and 1 (4.0%) isolate carried the blaNDM gene. Based on MLST analysis, two colistin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were categorized as ST2. The ST2 clone represents the predominant sequence type within the CC2 or international clone two. The results showed that the best antibiotic against isolates was colistin. blaOXA-51 and blaOXA-23 genes (oxacillinase genes) were dominant genes, but blaIMP and blaOXA-58 were not local carbapenem resistant genes in Isfahan.

期刊介绍:
BMC Research Notes publishes scientifically valid research outputs that cannot be considered as full research or methodology articles. We support the research community across all scientific and clinical disciplines by providing an open access forum for sharing data and useful information; this includes, but is not limited to, updates to previous work, additions to established methods, short publications, null results, research proposals and data management plans.
