Antibiotic resistant bacteria that cause infections in hospitals can originate anywhere, then spread world wide. They start off resistant to a few antibiotics, then become resistant to new antibiotics that are introduced to treat them. This project will investigate how resistance to antibiotics was acquired by Acinetobacter baumannii which is now resistant to most antibiotics, and why the old resistance genes are not being lost. This will help track these bacteria moving into and around Australia.

在医院引起感染的抗药性细菌可以来自任何地方，然后传播到世界各地。他们开始对几种抗生素产生抗药性，然后对为治疗他们而引入的新抗生素产生抗药性。这个项目将调查鲍曼不动杆菌是如何获得对抗生素的耐药性的，它现在对大多数抗生素都有耐药性，以及为什么旧的耐药性基因没有丢失。这将有助于追踪这些进入澳大利亚和澳大利亚周围的细菌。
