Objective: , one of the clinical superbugs, causes diverse infections because of its variable capsular antigens. This study focused on and aimed to assess any correlation between capsular serotype, capsule-associated virulence genes, and evaluate its resistance to conventional antibiotics in order to gain insight into any regional differences.

Materials And Methods: A total of 61 collected from various clinical specimens were confirmed genotypically.

Background And Objectives: Trend analysis reveals that has witnessed a steep enhancement in the antibiotic resistance and virulence over the last few decades. The present investigation aimed at a comprehensive approach investigating antibiotic susceptibility including, extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC β-lactamase (AmpC) resistance and the prevalence of virulence genes among the isolates.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-one isolates were obtained from various clinical infections.

Uropathogenic (UPEC) is a well-known pathogen that has perturbed the medical scenario because of its resistance to diverse therapeutic drugs and its ability to form a biofilm. Different O-serogroups are the prevalent cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs) along with their ability to form a biofilm. The present research aimed to assess antibiotic susceptibility, biofilm formation, and serotyping of UPEC isolates in conjunction with the demographic data.
