Colistin Resistance in Aeromonas spp.

Antibiotic resistance in clinical and environmental isolates of Aeromonas spp.

Aeromonas spp. and Traveler’s Diarrhea: Clinical Features and Antimicrobial Resistance

Traveler's diarrhea is the most common health problem of international travelers. We determined the prevalence of Aeromonas spp. associated with traveler's diarrhea and analyzed the geographic distribution, clinical features, and antimicrobial susceptibility. Aeromonas spp. were isolated as a cause of traveler's diarrhea in 18 (2%) of 863 patients. A. veronii biotype sobria was isolated in nine...

Sci., 16: 376-386 This study has determined and compared the antibiotic resistance towards various groups of antibiotics of 25 isolates from Aeromonas spp. with different origin. The strains have been isolated from drinking water and fish samples in Bulgaria, a...

New update on molecular determinants of colistin resistance in bacteria

Colistin relates to the polymyxin group of antibiotics. This antibiotic is still used to destroy gram-negative bacteria as a last resort. However, resistance to this antibiotic has been reported and is appearing day by day. Not much information is available on the exact mechanisms of resistance to this antibiotic. Also, not enough information about pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics is avail...

Colistin Resistance in Acinetobacter Lwoffii

Acinetobacter spp. has emerged as a significant hospital pathogen, quickly becoming resistant to commonly used routine drugs. Colistin remains as the only drug of choice for carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter. In our study among 65 strains of Acinetobacter isolated from different clinical samples, 2 strains showed Colistin resistance by Disk diffusion method .It was confirmed by performing mini...
