Characterisation of integrons which potentially mediate dissemination of antibiotic resistance in enterobacteriaceae isolated from healthy community members
(Makerere University, 2020-10)
Antibiotic resistance has become a global public health concern, by limiting the number of drugs used to treat bacterial infections. Antimicrobial resistance and multidrug resistance (MDR) therefore increase morbidity and ...

(Makerere University, 2023)
Antibiotic resistance in nosocomial infection (NI) management is a major problem globally. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitudes, practices about nosocomial infections, antibiotic resistance and to ...
Evaluation of nanoparticles and phages as candidate therapeutic agents for carbapenem resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli
(Makerere University, 2022-09)
Centred on the current rate of antibiotics production and approvals, it is anticipated that by 2050 up to 10 million people could die annually due to multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens. One of the notable examples of ...
