Global antibiotic resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae.
The last two decades of the 20th century were marked by an increasing resistance rate among several bacteria. Threat of resistance is present in Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., Pseudomonas spp. and Enterobacteriaceae, which are the major pathogens in nosocomial infections. In the community, too, increasing resistance can be observed and is attributed mainly (but not exclusively) to Stre...
متن کاملEvaluation of Antibiotic Resistance Patterns of Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates from Educational Hospitals in Zahedan, Iran
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: The resistance of gram-negative bacteria to antibiotics has become a serious problem, which imposes a significant increase in treatment costs. Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important nosocomial pathogen from the Enterobacteriaceae family. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency and pattern of antibiotic resistance in K. pneumoniae strains isolat...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance of clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Greece.
The antibiotic susceptibilities of 1,002 Streptococcus pneumoniae clinical isolates from patients with community-acquired pneumonia were determined over an 18-month period. Resistance rates were 14% for penicillin, 20% for erythromycin, 26% for tetracycline, and 1% for chloramphenicol. Resistance to non-beta-lactam antibiotics was associated with penicillin resistance at statistically levels.
متن کاملNasopharyngeal carriage, antibiotic resistance and serotype distribution of Streptococcus
Abstract Background and objectives: Colonization of nasopharynx by Streptococcus Pneumoniae can lead to pneumococcal disease. This study was performed to determine the carriage rate of nasopharyngeal S.pneumoniae in adolescents and their antibiotic susceptibility and serotype prevalence in Zahedan, Iran Material and Methods: Nasopharyngeal specimens were obtained from 865 adolescents aged 10-19...
متن کاملNon-PmrA-mediated multidrug resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae.
The PmrA multidrug transporter protein gene was inactivated in Streptococcus pneumoniae strains CP1000 (wild-type) and EBR (mutant with enhanced active multidrug efflux). While the resistance to fluoroquinolones and ethidium bromide shown by EBR was reduced to the wild-type level, neither the susceptibility to reserpine in the presence of ethidium bromide and selected fluoroquinolones, nor the ...
