Article Synopsis
- Persister cells with low metabolic rates contribute to antibiotic treatment failures and are resistant to multiple drugs, especially in biofilm-related chronic infections.* -
- The study analyzed three persister isolates from Egyptian chronic infections, finding them to be multidrug resistant and capable of surviving high concentrations of levofloxacin.* -
- Whole genome sequencing revealed a smaller genome size and unique genetic profiles, with these isolates forming a distinct clade and exhibiting strong biofilm formation capabilities.*
Background: is a common hospital acquired infections pathogen. Multidrug-resistant Methicillin-resistant represents a major problem in Egyptian hospitals. The over-expression of efflux pumps is a main cause of multidrug resistance.
