NDM-1 can also be transferred between different bacteria. NDM-1 gene first found in the British professor of medicine at Cardiff University, Tim ‘Walsh in the paper explained: “This gene can be attached to any strains of bacteria and produce enzymes that can spread of bacteria in general ways spread through contact with infected people or in unsanitary conditions, breeding of bacteria infection. now the main means of transmission is in India or Pakistan, hospitals, surgery. ”

In other words, NDM-1 gene as a removable reloading time bomb, free onward, in common bacteria in allowing bacteria to transform into “super bacteria” that could break from the inside of antibiotics.

According to the authority of the British medical journal the famous “Lancet,” said, NDM-1 gene itself does not cause any symptoms, the key is what it is attached to the bacteria, the body will reflect the kind of bacteria infection symptoms. For example, if the NDM-1 in E. coli on, then the patient will show symptoms of E. coli infection: from mild to severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. Some people may not feel any symptoms.

In addition to E. coli addition, NDM-1 gene is also more on the attached Klebsiella pneumoniae. Pneumonia respiratory tract infection, can cause very severe symptoms, have mild to severe cough, fever, chills, fatigue, stomach discomfort and diarrhea.
