Escherichia coli isolates that carry vat, fyuA, chuA, and yfcV efficiently colonize the urinary tract.
Extraintestinal Escherichia coli (ExPEC), a heterogeneous group of pathogens, encompasses avian, neonatal meningitis, and uropathogenic E. coli strains. While several virulence factors are associated with ExPEC, there is no core set of virulence factors that can be used to definitively differentiate these pathotypes. Here we describe a multiplex of four virulence factor-encoding genes, yfcV, va...
متن کاملResistance patterns of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases and Escherichia coli is its common cause. The aim of this study was to assess the resistance patterns of E.coli in urinary tract infections and to determine the susceptibility of E.coli to commonly used antimicrobials and also to evaluate the options for empirical treatment of UTI. Methods: This stud...
متن کاملComparative virulotyping and phylogenomics of Escherichia coli isolates from urine samples of men and women suffering urinary tract infections
Objective(s): Escherichia coli strains are common pathogens that can cause urinary tract infections (UTI). This study aimed to assess E. coli phylogroups and virulence types in male and female UTI patients.Materials and Methods: In the present study, 160 uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) isolates (from both sexes) were assigned to phylogroups/types and some extraintestinal virulence factors were det...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance to Escherichia coli in Urinary Isolates from College Women with Urinary Tract Infections
Of 176 urine isolates from female students positive for Escherichia coli, 29.6% were trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole resistant and none were nitrofurantoin resistant. Among students with a history of UTI (n=119), resistance to ciprofloxacin was 11.8% compared to 1.8% without prior UTI. Nitrofurantoin should be considered for empiric therapy of lower tract UTI.

متن کاملThe role of mannose sensitive and mannose resistant pili of Escherichia coli in urinary tract infection
In order to study the relationship between hrmolysin / ashesins of Escherichia coli and occurrence of urinary tract infection ( UTI), the capacity of 570 isolated E.coli in agglutination of human or guinea pig erythrocytes and their lysis were tested. These isolates were obtained from the urine of patients with bacteriuria and from the stool of healthy people. Three patterns of hemagglutinat...
