Description
Summary:Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes serious infections and is resistant to various antibiotics. Fifty isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae were reactivated and reidentified based on Compact System Vitek 2. All the isolates were tested for six antimicrobial agents using the agar diffusion process. The final results were as follows: Ampencillin 96%, Imipenem 38%, Cefotaxime 96%, Tobramycin 48%, Doxycycline 90%, and Azythromycin 66%. β--lactamase producers (MBL and AmpC) appeared at 70% and 22%, respectively. Clinical K. pneumoniae isolates' RAPD amplification information revealed that 16 isolates were 0% Applying the integrase gene as an indicator for class 1 integron research and PCR analysis revealed that 16 (100%) of K. pneumoniae Integrin I dendrograms of K. pneumoniae isolates showed two main clusters: A and B. According to our data, resistance to all antibiotic classes was shown to be more widespread in B lineages (100%), followed by A phylogenetic groupings, which were resistant (100%) to cefotaxame and ampencillin.
