Molecular characterization and prevalence of Bacillus species isolated from Egyptian hospitals

Abstract: Background: Bacillus species are widely distributed in all environments including health care settings and represent one of the highly resistant organisms. Objective: This study aimed to find out the prevalence, molecular characterization of genetic diversity among studied Bacillus species in Egyptian hospitals environment and their antibiotic susceptibility profile. Methods: A total 528 swab samples were collected from different hospitals environment. Isolation and identification were performed according to c… Show more

“…This was to be expected given their wide distribution in the environment, particularly in soil, and association with food products (Rana et al, 2020). Similar to this study, Al-Habibi et al (2022) examined 407 environmental isolates across three hospitals, identifying 43.2% as Bacillus spp. and 19.2% as CoNS.…”
