Clonal Relatedness of Enterotoxigenic and Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli Isolates from Diverse Human, Foods and Calf Sources
Background: Foodborne infection caused by EnterotoxigenicEscherichia coli (ETEC) and Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is one of the major health problems, particularly in the developing countries. Therefore, it is vital to identify the origin of food contamination to plan control strategies efficiently. Method: A tota...
متن کاملDetection and Distribution of various HLAR Gene in Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium by Multiplex-PCR
Background: In recent years, three new aminoglycoside resistance genes such as aph (3ʹ)-IIIa and ant (4ʹ)-Ia, that encode for the APH (3ʹ) and ANT (4ʹ) have also been identified. The aim of this study was to come up with a multiplex-PCR procedure for detection of aac(6ʹ)-Ie–aph(2ʹʹ)-Ia, aph(3ʹ)-IIIa, ant(4ʹ)-Ia genes in the Enterococcus spp. clinical isolates. Material and Method: 100 ...
متن کاملYancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis
Nosocomial infection caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE) has become a great deal of recent concern. Although a number of cephalosporins had been synthesized in the past, few of them was effective against these resistant bacteria. Recently, TOC-39and TOC-50^3) bearing vinyl-thio linkage attached by substituted pyridines at C-3 we...
متن کاملClonal expansion within clonal complex 2 and spread of vancomycin-resistant plasmids among different genetic lineages of Enterococcus faecalis from Portugal.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the diversity of Enterococcus faecalis populations recovered in different regions of Portugal during the last decade (1996-2007) and to analyse their genetic elements associated with vancomycin resistance. METHODS Forty E. faecalis isolates (22 vancomycin-susceptible and 18 vancomycin-resistant) representing disseminated and/or multiresistant str...
