Abstract

Gram-negative bacteria are one of the most prevalent complications among immunocompromised cancer sufferers and pose the greatest threat to these patients.Our study aimed to conduct research on Gram-negative bacteria isolated from various clinical samplesamong cancerous patients and non-cancerous patients in Erbil city to analyze and compare some virulence genes among them such as tuf, atpD1, atpD2, ms-1, ms-2 and ms-3.

Keywords

Gram-negative bacteria, cancerous patients, non-cancerous patients, virulence genes
