Biocide resistance in : a narrative review.

is among the World Health Organization's list of priority pathogens, notorious for its role in causing healthcare-associated infections and neonatal sepsis globally. Containment of transmission depends on the continued effectiveness of antimicrobials and of biocides used for topical antisepsis and surface disinfection. is known to disseminate antimicrobial resistance (AMR) through a large auxiliary genome made up of plasmids, transposons and integrons, enabling it to evade antimicrobial killing through the use of efflux systems and biofilm development.
