A total of 80 clinical isolates of <jats:italic>S. maltophilia<\/jats:italic> were collected from multiple hospitals in Tehran, Iran. This study conducted an analysis of antibiotic susceptibility by disc diffusion method and <jats:italic>E<\/jats:italic>\u2010test assay, resistance and virulence gene frequencies were examined by PCR\u2010sequencing, and multilocus sequencing typing (MLST) was performed for strain typing. Across the tested isolates, we observed notably high resistance rates for imipenem 80 (100%), meropenem 78(97.5%), and ceftazidime 72 (90%), while trimethoprim\u2010sulfamethoxazole (SXT) showed a lower resistance rate of 2 (2.5%). Minocycline and levofloxacin demonstrated the highest susceptibility rates, with 70 (87.5%) and 80 (100%), respectively. The prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes bla<jats:sub><jats:italic>L<\/jats:italic>1<\/jats:sub>, and bla<jats:sub><jats:italic>L<\/jats:italic>2<\/jats:sub> was 71 (88.75%) and 76 (95%), respectively. Additionally, the PCR analysis revealed that the frequency of virulence genes (<jats:italic>fliC<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>virB<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>papD<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>pilU<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>hlyIII<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>stmPr1<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>stmPr2<\/jats:italic>) was 78 (97.5%), 77 (96.25%), 58 (72.5%), 77 (96.2%), 76 (95%), 31 (38.75%), and 80 (100%), respectively. Resistance to SXT isolate belong to the sequence type (ST15) and exhibits allelic profiles of (10, 29, 21, 21, 32, 32, and 10). The data obtained from our investigation have indicated that SXT remains an efficacious antibiotic and also highlighted the importance of effective management, identification of resistant isolates, and typing methods to address the global prevalence of antibiotic resistance in <jats:italic>S. maltophilia<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2024\/8224242","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,1]],"date-time":"2024-10-01T02:55:13Z","timestamp":1727751313000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Antibiotic Resistance and Virulence Factors in Clinical Isolates of <i>Stenotrophomonas maltophilia<\/i> from Hospitalized Patients in Tehran, Iran"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2024","author":[{"given":"Mahrokh","family":"Bahrami","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4500-5764","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Narjess","family":"Bostanghadiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6720-9341","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mehdi","family":"Goudarzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-6303-4446","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Niloufar","family":"Khodaei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7258-5541","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali","family":"Hashemi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/microbiolres14010001"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics13061106"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/cmr.00019-11"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2217\/fmb.09.84"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/502197"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jinf.2012.01.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/320183"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/jcma.0000000000000764"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2021.747827"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2023\/1879554"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14787210.2019.1685875"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099\/jmm.0.026377-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/iai.00672-15"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.micpath.2014.02.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/mbio.01502-21"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fcimb.2020.00050"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14787210.2020.1730178"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_18_2","volume-title":"New Strategies against Stenotrophomonas Maltophilia: A Serious Worldwide Intrinsically Drug-Resistant Opportunistic Pathogen","author":"Brooke J.
