Antibiotic Resistance in Extra Intestinal Pathogenic Escherichia Coli
In recent years, extra intestinal E. coli infection and a high level of drug resistance among such ExPEC is often seen in the World. The treatment of E. coli infections is increasingly becoming difficult because of the multi-drug resistance exhibited by the organism. As multidrug resistance has spread, we are already coming across infections that cannot be cured with any available antibiotics. ...
متن کاملExtra-intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC): Disease, carriage and clones.
Extra-intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) have a complex phylogeny, broad virulence factor (VF) armament and significant genomic plasticity, and are associated with a spectrum of host infective syndromes ranging from simple urinary tract infection to life-threatening bacteraemia. Their importance as pathogens has come to the fore in recent years, particularly in the context of the gl...
متن کاملExtra intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli from human and avian origin: Detection of the most common virulence-encoding genes
Pathogenic Escherichia coli strains cause a wide range of extra intestinal infections including urinary tract infection in humans and colibacillosis in poultry. They are classified into uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) and avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) with genetic similarities and variations. Their pathogenicity is related to the virulence-encoding genes like sfa</...
متن کاملFrequency of selected virulence-associated genes in intestinal and extra-intestinal Escherichia coli isolates from chicken
Background: Although Escherichia coli (E. coli)is a part of intestinal normal microflora of warm-blooded animals, includingpoultry, outbreaks occur in poultry raised below standard sanitation and duringthe course of respiratory or immunosuppressive diseases. Avian pathogenic E.coli (APEC) harbors several genes associated with virulence andpathogenicity. APEC strains are responsible for some dis...
متن کاملEffect of Fructooligosaccharide Metabolism on Chicken Colonization by an Extra-Intestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli Strain
Extra-intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) strains cause many diseases in humans and animals. While remaining asymptomatic, they can colonize the intestine for subsequent extra-intestinal infection and dissemination in the environment. We have previously identified the fos locus, a gene cluster within a pathogenicity island of the avian ExPEC strain BEN2908, involved in the metabolism...
