| Research Abstract |
Acinetobactor baumanniiis an increasingly important nosocomial pathogen that causes a broad array of infections, particularly in hospitalized patients. This study was aimed at establishing new strategies for prevention and therapy of multidrug-resistant A. baumanniibiofilms. By using in vitroa n d in vivomodels, we found possible therapeutic approaches for treating biofilm infections caused by multidrug-resistant A. baumannii. Further studies were needed to establish novel models by using real-time imaging.
