Characterization of biofilm formation and virulence factors of Staphylococcus aureus isolates from paediatric patients in Tehran, Iran
Objective(s): Staphylococcus aureus can cause several infections. Its capability to form biofilm has been reported to be a vital property involved in the bacteria’s pathogenesis. Various genes contributing to biofilm formation have not yet been completely clarified. This study was designed to evaluate the factors influencing adherence and biofilm formation in S. aureus...
متن کاملCharacterization of nasopharyngeal isolates of type b Haemophilus influenzae from Delhi
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Haemophilus influenzae is an important cause of mortality and morbidity among young children in developing countries. Increasing incidence of antibiotic resistance especially production of extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) has made treatment and management of H. influenzae infection more difficult. Nasopharyngeal H. influenzae isolates are excellent surrogate for d...
متن کاملCharacterization of Nontypable Haemophilus influenzae Isolates Recovered from Adult Patients with Underlying Chronic Lung Disease Reveals Genotypic and Phenotypic Traits Associated with Persistent Infection
Nontypable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) has emerged as an important opportunistic pathogen causing infection in adults suffering obstructive lung diseases. Existing evidence associates chronic infection by NTHi to the progression of the chronic respiratory disease, but specific features of NTHi associated with persistence have not been comprehensively addressed. To provide clues about adaptive...

متن کاملNeonatal Invasive Haemophilus influenzae Disease and Genotypic Characterization of the Associated Strains in Italy.
TO THE EDITOR—We read with interest the article by Collins and colleagues demonstrating that nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is responsible for most invasive disease occurring in the perinatal period and that early-onset neonatal NTHi disease (strain isolation from blood or cerebrospinal fluid within 48 hours of birth) is strongly associated with premature birth [1]. Although it is we...
