Antibiotic Resistance of Clinical Isolates of Acinetobacter Baumannii in Hospitals of Kermanshah, Iran during one year
Background & Aims: Acinetobacter spp. are non-fermenting gram-negative coccobacilli that have emerged in recent three decades as major causes of nosocomial infections. Acinetobacter baumannii is the most common pathogen causing a wide spectrum of infections. Acinetobacter infections are difficult to treat, due to both the intrinsic resistance of the pathogen and its ability to readily acquire n...
متن کاملDetection of Carbapenemases Emerging in Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates by Modified Hodge Test
Introduction: Acinetobacter baumannii, a known causative agent of nosocomial infections, is one of the highly antibiotic-resistant gram-negative bacilli. Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter isolates are increasingly reported worldwide. Carbapenems such as imipenem and meropenem are efficient antimicrobial agents commonly used for the treatment of infections caused by multi- resistant A. baumanni...
متن کاملAssociation between mutations in gyrA and parC genes of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates and ciprofloxacin resistance
Objective(s): We investigated the contribution of gyrA and parC mutational mechanism in decreased ciprofloxacin susceptibility of Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from burn wound infections. Materials and Methods: Ciprofloxacin susceptibility of 50 A. baumannii isolates was evaluated by disk diffusion and agar dilution methods. PCR and sequencing were performed for detection of mutation in gyr...
متن کاملDetection of Efflux Pump Using Ethidium Bromide-Agar Cartwheel Method in Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Isolates
Introduction: In the past decade, multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has become one of the most critical challenges in treating infected patients. The AdeABC efflux pump is the most important among the various resistance mechanisms. This pump can force various antibiotics and ethidium bromide out of the bacterial cell to the surrounding environment. Methods: In this study, nine A. baum...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
