High Level Aminoglycoside Resistance and Distribution of Aminoglycoside Resistant Genes among Clinical Isolates of Enterococcus Species in Chennai, India
Enterococci are nosocomial pathogen with multiple-drug resistance by intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms. Aminoglycosides along with cell wall inhibitors are given clinically for treating enterococcal infections. 178 enterococcal isolates were analyzed in this study. E. faecalis is identified to be the predominant Enterococcus species, along with E. faecium, E. avium, E. hirae, E. durans, E. dis...
متن کاملSPECIES IDENTIFICATION AND INV ESTIGATION OF VANCOMYCIN AND HIGH-LEVEL AMINOGLYCOSIDE AMONG CLINICAL ISOLATES OF ENTEROCOCCAL STRAINS
A study was performed to determine the species and antimicrobial susceptibility of 100 enterococcus strains from various clinical specimens as etiological agents at the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory, Istanbul University, Medical Faculty Hospital. Out of 100 enterococcal isolates, 86 were identified as E. faecalis, 11 as E. faecium, 1 as E. avium and 2 as E. raffinosus. By the disk diff...
متن کاملAnalysis of Aminoglycoside Modifying Enzyme Genes Responsible for High-Level Aminoglycoside Resistance among Enterococcal Isolates
Enzymatic modification results in high-level resistance to aminoglycoside (HLAR), which eliminates the synergistic bactericidal effect of combined exposure to a cell wall-active agent and an aminoglycoside. So aim of the study was to determine prevalence of HLAR enterococcal isolate and to study distribution of aminoglycoside modifying enzyme genes in them. A total of 100 nonrepeat isolates of ...

متن کاملDetection of tetracycline resistance genes, aminoglycoside modifying enzymes, and coagulase gene typing of clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus in the Southwest of Iran
Objective(s): The aim of the present study was to determine the aminoglycoside modifying enzymes (AMEs) encoded genes, tetracycline resistance genes, and the coa based typing of Staphylococcus aureus isolates in the Southwest of Iran. Materials and Methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates was carried out by agar disk diffusion methods. Two sets of multiplex PCR mixture were used for de...
