Abstract

Some isolates of bacteria were taken from various places inside the hospital, including operating theaters,
corridors, ventilation areas, floors, and other samples were taken from patients suffering from antibiotic
resistance.
The study aims to discover the multiple resistant bacteria present in the hospital environment, to discover the
extent of their resistance, and to detect the gene NDM-1, NDM-2, which when they are present, the bacteria
are highly resistant.
When a patient is infected with multiple resistant bacteria, he suffers from all antibiotic resistance and may
lead to death, which is the biggest problem in the world today.
