New fimbrial gene cluster of S-fimbrial adhesin family.
Fimbrial adhesins that mediate attachment to host cells are produced by most virulent Escherichia coli isolates. These virulence factors play an important role in the initial stages of bacterial colonization and also in determination of the host and tissue specificity. Isolates belonging to serotype O78 are known to cause a large variety of clinical syndromes in farm animals and humans and have...
متن کاملAnalysis of occurrence of virulence genes among Yersinia enterocolitica isolates belonging to different biotypes and serotypes.
The 150 Y enterocolitica strains isolated from humans and from pigs belonged to biotypes 4 (68.7%), 1A (18.7%) and 2 (4%), or were biochemically untypeable (8.6%). Biotype 4 was comprised of Y. enterocolitica strains representing serotype O:3, within biotype 1A the strains either belonged to serotypes O:5 and O:6 or were untypeable, and biotype 2 was represented by the strains of serotype O:9. ...
متن کاملFluoroquinolone resistance among clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae belonging to international multiresistant clones.
Twenty-nine fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae from a collection of isolates from the Alexander Project (1992-1997) and a study from Northern Ireland were identified on the basis of ofloxacin MICs > or = 4 mg/L. DNA fingerprint analyses using BOX-fingerprinting and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis revealed serotype 9V and 23F high-level FQ-resistant str...
متن کاملPlasma jet impacts on Citrinin production in isolates belonging to Penicillium Spp.
Mycotoxins such as Citrinin are small toxic molecules produced by a great variety of microorganism, which encompass several classes of secondary metabolites with no common chemical structure or mode of action. Citrinin produces by different species of Penicillium. Today, the cold atmospheric pressure plasma (CAPP) method has a potential for mycotoxin detoxification. In this study, a new and pro...
متن کاملDistribution of the serine protease autotransporters of the Enterobacteriaceae among extraintestinal clinical isolates of Escherichia coli.
Urinary tract infections continue to be among the most common extraintestinal diseases. Cystitis in women is by far the most common urinary tract infection; pyelonephritis in both sexes and prostatitis in men are more severe but less frequent complaints. Escherichia coli is by far the most common cause of urinary tract infection. It is believed that uropathogenic E. coli is adept at colonizing ...
