Prevalence of virulence-associated genes in culture-confirmed Vibrio cholerae isolates: a PCR-based study

Vibrio cholerae remains a major cause of cholera outbreaks in Ethiopia, yet information on the distribution of virulence-associated genes among circulating strains is limited. This study aimed to detect major virulence genes in culture-confirmed V. cholerae isolates recovered fro...

Genomic characterization of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from the National Clinical Bacteriology Reference Laboratory, Ethiopia

Acinetobacter baumannii is a major cause of healthcare-associated infections, and carbapenem-resistant strains pose a critical public health threat owing to limited treatment options and the dissemination of AMR determinants. However, genomic data on carbapenem-resistant A bauman...
