Correlation Analysis Between Multi-Drug Resistance Phenotype and Virulence Factor Expression of Clinical .

(PA), as a common pathogen of nosocomial infections, has been experiencing an increasing rate of drug resistance with the widespread use and abuse of antimicrobial drugs. High-drug-resistance and high-virulence phenotypes are two distinctive features of the strong pathogenicity of multi-drug-resistant PA. Exploring the characterization of virulence factor expression and its relationship with the multi-drug resistance phenotype is essential to reduce the further development of resistance as well as a high standard of infection prevention and control.
