GRAM NEGATIVE BACILLI IN BURNS
In a period of nine months, 225 strains of Gram-negative bacilli isolated from burns were identified by a variety of tests in two burn centers in Tehran. The most common species were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter agglomerans, Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Many strains of acinetobacter spp, providencia spp, proteus spp, ser...
متن کاملAerobic Gram-Negative Bacilli
A total of 434 clinical aerobic gram-negative bacillary isolates were tested against LY127935, a new 1-oxa cephalosporin, and compared with other cephalosporins, penicillins, and aminoglycosides by a broth microdilution technique. Cefotaxime (HR756), a new semisynthetic cephalosporin, and LY127935 were more active, and showed lower minimun inhibitory concentrations (rantes, -O.12 to 2.0 ,ug/ml)...
متن کاملPost-neurosurgical meningitis; gram negative bacilli vs. gram positive cocci
Background: Post-neurosurgical meningitis is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity. In this study we aimed to compare the differences of clinical, laboratory features and outcomes between the post-neurosurgical meningitis caused by gram-negative bacilli (GNB) and gram-positive cocci (GPC). Methods: Cases of post-neurosurgical meningitis (with positive CSF culture) were included. After...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Blue-Carba test for rapid detection of carbapenemases in gram-negative bacilli.
The Blue-Carba test (BCT) is a biochemical test for rapid ( 2 h) detection of carbapenemase production in Gram-negative bacilli directly from bacterial culture (1). It is based on the in vitro hydrolysis of imipenem by bacterial colonies (direct inoculation without prior lysis), which is detected by changes in pH values revealed by the indicator bromothymol blue (blue to green/yellow or green t...
متن کاملNew Delhi metallo-β-lactamase and OXA-48 carbapenemases in Gram-negative bacilli isolates in Libya
To the Editor Carbapenems (i.e. ertapenem, imipenem, meropenem, and doripenem) are second line antimicrobials reserved to treat serious infections, including those caused by Gramnegative bacilli (GNB) producing extended-spectrum b-lactamses (ESBLs). ESBLs mediate resistance among GNB to b-lactam drugs, including third generation cephalosporins. Emergence of carbapenemases-producing GNB (mainly ...
