“To Study the Molecular Characterization of Metallo-Beta Lactamase GeneblaIMP-1 in Imipenem Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from Patients of Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media”

Abstract

Introduction: A chronic inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity that lasts more than two weeks is known as chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM). A common organism that causes CSOM is pseudomonas aeruginosa. Although carbapenems are among the best medicines for treating Pseudomonas infections, the development of metallo-ß-lactamases strains is frequently linked to carbapenem resistance. Finding strains that produce MBLs can help ensure that patients receive the best care possible to stop the development of resistance. Finding the imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa carrying the metallo-ß-lactamase (MBL) geneblaIMP-1 is the primary goal of the research.
