Evaluation of antibiotic resistance, toxin-antitoxin systems, virulence factors, biofilm-forming strength and genetic linkage of Escherichia coli strains isolated from bloodstream infections of leukemia patients

Abstract Background One of the most common complications in patients with febrile neutropenia, lymphoma, leukemia, and multiple myeloma is a bloodstream infection (BSI). Objective This study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance patterns, virulence factors, biofilm-forming strength, and geneti...
