Whole genome sequencing of Acinetobacter pittii isolated from surgical site infection
This project aims to generate and analyze the whole genome sequence of Acinetobacter pittii isolated from wound swab samples of patients with surgical site infections. Acinetobacter pittii is an opportunistic pathogen increasingly associated with hospital-acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance. The objective of this study is to characterize the genomic features, including potential virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance genes, to better understand its role in clinical infections. The generated genomic data will contribute to global databases and support epidemiological surveillance, comparative genomics, and the development of effective infection control strategies.
