Investigation of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Class 1 Integron in Multi-Drug Resistant P. aeruginosa and E. coli Strains
Düzgün, Azer Özad; Saral, Ayşegül (2018)P. aeruginosa and E. coli are resistant to many antibiotics, so the treatment of infections of these pathogens has become difficult. Therefore, searching for the presence of antibiotic resistance genes in clinical isolates ... -
Kinetic characterization of GES-22 ß-lactamase harboring the M169L clinical mutation
Saral, Ayşegül; Leonard, David A; Özad Düzgün, Azer; Çopur Çiçek, Ayşegül; June, Cynthia M; Sandallı, Cemal (2016-12)The class A β-lactamase GES-22 has been identified in Acinetobacter baumannii isolates in Turkey, and subsequently shown to differ from GES-11 by a single substitution (M169L). Because M169 is part of the omega loop, a ... -
