Antibiogram Pattern Development of Pyogenic Bacteria and the Evaluation of their Multi-drug Resistance

Asma Bashir, Kiran Fatima, Neha Farid & Kashif Ali · Annual Research & Review in Biology · 2018

Purpose: Different studies show consistent predictable bacterial profiles in wound infections, antibiotic resistance and capacity to adapt to a changing environment, which render the pathogens a matter of concern in hospital acquired infections. Therefore, periodical monitoring o...
