Predominance of metallo-beta-lactamase blaVIM Genes in Clinical Isolates from Health Facilities in Nigeria: Role in Multidrug Resistance Surge

Predominance of metallo-beta-lactamase blaVIM Genes in Clinical Isolates from Health Facilities in Nigeria: Role in Multidrug Resistance Surge

Background: The predominance of metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) genes in Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) has been reported to contribute immensely in the emergence of multi-drug resistance (MDR) strains in hospital environments worldwide. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the molecular characterist...
