Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the genotypes of aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes(AMEs)genes of Acinetobacter baumannii.METHODS Clinical isolates of A.baumannii were collected from 2003 to 2006,and their resistance to gentamicin,amikacin and tobramycin were tested by K-B method.Twenty-three isolates were chosen because of their resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics(at least resistant to one kind of the drugs).Nine types of the AMEs were detected by PCR.RESULTS Drug resistant rates of 23 isolates of A.baumannii to gentamicin,amikacin and tobramycin,were 86.96%,56.5% and 69.56%,respectively.The detection rates of the 9 AMEs,including ant(3')-Ⅰ,aac(3)-Ⅰ、aac(6')-Ⅰ,aph(3')-Ⅵ,aac(3)-Ⅱ,aac(6')-Ⅱ and ant(2″)-Ⅰ were 69.56%,60.87%,56.52%,47.82%,30.4%,26.09% and 21.73%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS The resistance to aminoglycoside antibiotics of A.baumannii is mainly caused by AMEs.
