Antimicrobial Susceptibility/Resistance of Streptococcus Pneumoniae
INTRODUCTION Pneumococcal infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, whose treatment is threatened with an increase in the number of strains resistant to antibiotic therapy. GOAL The main goal of this research was to investigate the presence of antimicrobial susceptibility/resistance of S. pneumoniae. MATERIAL AND METHODS Taken are swabs of the nose and nasopharynx, ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility and analysis of macrolide resistance genes in Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated in Hamadan
Objective(s): Macrolide resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae pose an emerging problem globally. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of ermB and mefA genes (macrolide resistant genes) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and to detect drug resistance patterns of S. pneumoniae isolated from clinical samples to macrolides and other antibiotic agents by E-test method. Materia...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility testing of Streptococcus pneumoniae by micro-broth dilution.
Thirty-three clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae were tested for susceptibility to penicillin and ampicillin by a standard agar dilution method. Results were compared to those obtained using a micro-broth dilution technique in which Mueller-Hinton broth was supplemented with 5% difibrinated whole sheep blood. Among the 33 strains, 2 were resistant (minimal inhibitory concentration, 8 ...
متن کاملNasopharyngeal Carriage and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Patterns of Streptococcus pneumoniae among Children under Five in Southwest Ethiopia
Nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae is found to play an important role in the development and transmission of pneumococcal diseases. In this study, we assessed the nasopharyngeal carriage, antimicrobial susceptibility patterns and associated risk factors of S. pneumoniae among children under five. A total of 361 children under five attending the outpatient department of Shanan G...
