The single-centre hospital-based observational study aimed at accessing the knowledge, attitude and practice of practicing doctors towards AMS based on a free online open WHO course, a global action … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2022 · 6,641 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntimicrobial Resistance Pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Different Clinical Specimens: Survey ArticleHosniyeh E. Ladadweh, Hiba H. Falana, Jannat M. Ma’ali et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.A.) is a gram-negative, aerobic rod bacterium that mainly grows in soil and watery environments, infrequently being a part of microflora in healthy individuals. Since P.A. favors the growth in moistened areas, it can colonize in any simple aqueous solution, which in turn raises the risk of contamination and infection in hospital settings. The emergence of drug resistant … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2021 · 8,396 accessesView PDFCite
