In immunocompromised individuals presenting with pyrexia of unknown origin, Bartonella spp. infection warrants specific diagnostic consideration. Our case underscores the significance of probing into a patient's history, particularly past exposures to cats, as a crucial step in unraveling complex clinical scenarios. Notably, despite negative se

Introduction: Inherent resistance of biofilm bacteria to conventional antibiotics is alarming because biofilms induce antibiotic resistance to an order of three or more in magnitude greater than those displayed by planktonic bacteria. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an infectious organism that causes the hallmark of chronic infections including hospital
