METHOD A total of 100 bacterial enteric pathogens: Salmonellae (n = 16), enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) (n = 26). Shigellae (n = 28) and ...
متن کاملAntibacterial activities of lactic acid bacteria isolated from cow faeces against potential enteric pathogens.
BACKGROUND The addition of sub therapeutic doses of antibiotics to cattle feed for growth promotion is a contributory factor to antibiotic resistance, thus an alternative to antibiotics is needed in animal feed additives. OBJECTIVE To determine the antimicrobial activity of cow's intestinal Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) against enteric commensals. METHOD Escherichia coli, Klebsiella species (s...
متن کاملResveratrol—Potential Antibacterial Agent against Foodborne Pathogens
Bacterial foodborne pathogens are a significant health burden and the recent emergence of pathogenic resistant strains due to the excessive use of antibiotics makes it more difficult to effectively treat infections as a result of contaminated food. Awareness of this impending health crisis has spurred the search for alternative antimicrobials with natural plant antimicrobials being among the mo...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of azithromycin against bacterial enteric pathogens.
The in vitro activity of azithromycin against enteric bacterial pathogens was determined by agar dilution. Azithromycin was highly active against Campylobacter spp. (MIC for 90% of strains tested [MIC90] = 0.125 micrograms/ml) and against enterotoxigenic, enterohemorrhagic, enteroinvasive, and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (MIC90 = 2 micrograms/ml), Shigella spp. (MIC90 = 1 micrograms/ml), ...
