Draft genomes of four multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gammaproteobacteria from biofilm on hemodialysis catheters in Gujarat, India

Puntos clave

• Multidrug-resistant bacteria were isolated from biofilm on hemodialysis catheters, indicating serious infection risks.
• Key findings show multiple antibiotic-resistant gene cassettes linked to these Gammaproteobacteria.
• Whole-genome analysis was performed to predict antibiotic resistance mechanisms in the identified bacteria.
• Highlights the pressing need for monitoring antibiotic resistance in clinical settings for better patient outcomes.
