Abstract
Background : Treatment of infections caused by metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL)- producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( P. aeruginosa ) is a major healthcare-associated concern. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to ascertain antibiotic resistance patterns and prevalence of MBL genes in clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa.
