Phenotypical Detection of β-Lactamases in a Multidrug-Resistant and Extensively Drug-Resistant Chryseobacterium indologens: A Rare Human Pathogen With Special References to Risk Factor.

ABSTRACT: Chryseobacterium indologenes is gram-negative bacteria that cause infection in humans. It is less frequently isolated in the laboratory. The development of drug-resistant and its intrinsic ability to resist a wide range of antimicrobials enables them to cause mortality in an immunocompromised patient with a longer hospital stay. Our study objectives are to investigate antimicrobial-resistant patterns, drug-resistant enzymes, and the risk factor analysis associated with multidrug-resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and Pan-drug resistant (PDR) within 2 years. Altogether 53 strains of Chryseobacterium indologens were obtained from 5000 specimens that were processed for routine bacterial culture. The bacterial identification was done using conventional techniques
