Acinetobacter baumannii biofilm resistance mechanisms and prevention and control of progress

Abstract

At present, the multiple drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii outbreaks worldwide and has intensified the trend, especially in the intensive care unit and burn ward. Generic drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is known as the 21st century gram-negative bacterium “MRSA”, “Superbugs”. In recent years, researches have shown that this is associated with pathogenic bacteria to form biofilms. In this paper, the status of Acinetobacter baumannii infection, biofilm formation, resistance mechanism and prevention in recent years were summarized.
