Extensive Drug Resistance of Strong Biofilm-Producing <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> Strains Isolated from Infections and Colonization Hospitalized Patients in Southern Poland

Extensive Drug Resistance of Strong Biofilm-Producing <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> Strains Isolated from Infections and Colonization Hospitalized Patients in Southern Poland

<i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> (AB) is a bacterium that causes infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Treatment is challenging due to biofilm formation by AB strains, which hinders antibiotic effectiveness and promotes drug resistance. The aim of our study was to analyze...
