The experiment contents were integrated into three parts such as basic skills and verification experiment, systematic experiment and designing experiment. Basic skills and confirmato-ry experiments were performed alone with theory teaching by combination of modern teaching methods and traditional teaching methods, which consisted of “speaking”(experimental principles, methods and main technical points using multimedia), “looking”(demonstrating related operation on teaching website), teachers' demonstration, students' doing experiment independently and summarizing. In this part, the experimental operation skills such as the sterile operation technology, staining technology, microscopy technology and pure culture were emphasized. Systemic experiments would be carried out after completion of the most theory, the experiment time could be adjusted according to the experiment content, and the PBL teaching method was taken in this stage. After the theory teaching of Medical Microbiology was finished, students voluntarily participated in design experiments in the last stage, which were the fusion of scientific research subject and the experimental teaching. From the preview experiment, experiment operation, experiment report, to the final test, the multi-dimensional evalua-tion was implemented throughout the course of experiment teaching.

Objective To investigate the correlation between acquired drug resistance-related genes and mobile genetic elements from pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Methods Fifty-three horizontal transfer drug resistance-related genes ( β-lactamases,aminoglycoside and quinolones resistance related) and 12 mobile genetic elements (including zygosity plasmid,transposon,insertion sequence and integron) were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 20 clinical isolates of pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.Index cluster analysis was performed to explore the correlation.Results In 20 strains of pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii,there were 3 types of β-lactamases related genes (TEM-1,ADC-30,OXA-23 ),4 types of aminoglycoside modifying enzyme genes [ aac (3)-Ⅰ,aac(6′)-Ⅰ b,ant( 3″)-Ⅰ and aph( 3′)-Ⅰ ],and 5 kinds of mobile genetic elements ( int Ⅰ 1,tnpU,tnp513,IS26 and ISAba1 ). Index cluster analysis showed high correlations between resistance genes [TEM-1,ADC-30,aac( 6′)-Ⅰ b,ant( 3″)-Ⅰ,abeB,qacE Δ1] and mobile genetic elements ( int Ⅰ 1,tnpU,tnp513,IS26,ISAba1 ).Conclusion Clinical isolated pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii carries several acquired drug resistance-related genes and mobile genetic elements,and there may be a close association between them.
