Detection of acrA, acrB, aac(6')-Ib-cr, and qepA genes among clinical isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.

CONCLUSION: The distribution of qepA, aac(6')-Ib-cr, acrA, and acrB resistance determinants in E. coli and K. pneumoniae is a great concern. Therefore, infection control and prevention of spread of drug-resistant bacteria need careful management of medication and identification of resistant isolates.
