Abstract
The skin's defense mechanism against opportunistic infections is compromised by burn damage. One of the primary pathogens that colonize burn wounds and cause serious infections is Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Production of Extended Spectrum Beta-lactamase Enzymes (ESBLs) and Integron play a significant part in time wastage and selecting the best course of treatment. Using 16sRNA, sixteen P. aeruginosa isolates were detected by the conventional PCR technique. Amikacin (85%), Imipenem (70%), Tobramycin (65%), Azteronam, Cepfepime (63%), Ceftazidime (61%), were shown to have the greatest resistance levels, and the mordent resistance was demonstrated by Levofloxacin, Meropenem (55%), and Ciprofloxacin, Colistin (46%). The findings of the Double Disc Synergy Test (DDST) indicated that 10 (62.25%) among the isolates generated (ESBLs). All isolates were classified as Multidrug Resistance (MDR) 16(100%). The most common genotypes were Int-1 16(100%), BlaTEM 16(100%), and Bla CTX-M 13 (81.2%). Because Enterobacteriaceae produced a large number of ESBL and Integron Class-1 genes, Slowing the spread of antibiotic-resistant illnesses requires the application of high standards in both public health and laboratory practices.
