    The widespread of Acinetobacter baumanniiis concerning. The horizontal gene's transfer of this bacteria is crucial in acquiring unique traits like antibiotic resistance, which has been related to a significant increase in infection and fatality rates in patients. The New Delhi carbapenemase enzyme, which hydrolyzes all-lactam antibiotics (except aztreonam), including the broad-spectrum carbapenem antibiotic, is one of the most therapeutically significant carbapenemes. NDM (New Delhi metallo-beta lactamase) is a carbapenem enzyme that efficiently hydrolyzes lactams; as a result, NDM-producing bacteria only have a few treatment alternatives. VITEK-identified multidrug-resistant (MDR) A. baumannii isolates from Iraqi pneumonia patients were included in the investigation. Using 0.7 percent agarose gel electrophoresis, each isolate was checked for the presence of plas.. Read More»
