Acinetobacter infections. This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Microbiology, 2022. Catalogued from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 21-43). The blaNDM-1 gene is responsible for multidrug resistance in a wide variety of organisms including Acinetobacter which are responsible for opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients. The gene is primarily found in Asia; however it has been detected in various parts of the world. We performed a review of the prevalence of the blaNDM-1 gene in members of the Acinetobacter species throughout the world. We performed a literature review in PubMed using “ndm-1” and “Acinetobacter”. Eighty eight articles were included in the study and the results showed that blaNDM-1 positive Acinetobacter are most prevalent in Asia (64.7 %) and Africa (33 %), they are primarily found in clinical samples (80.4 %). The studies were mostly conducted in South East Asia, China, Middle East and North Africa and the proportion of blaNDM-1 positive Acinetobacter was usually higher in countries from these regions.
