The Relationship ofYersinia Isolates Bioserotypeswith Minimum Inhibitory Concentration of Ampicillin, Cefazolin, and Cefotaxime
Background:Yersinia is a genus in the family Enterobacteriaceae that its species includeYersinia enterocolitica, Yersinia intermedia, Yersinia frederiksenii, and Yersinia kristensenii. Among these species, Yersinia enterocolitica is the most important one that causes various diseases such as gastroenteritis, mesenteric lymph...
متن کاملCorrelation of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Breakpoints and Methicillin Resistance Gene Carriage in Clinical Isolates of Staphylococcus epidermidis
Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most important member of coagulase negative staphylococci responsible for community and hospital acquired infections. Most clinical isolates of S. epidermidis are resistant to methicillin making these infections difficult to treat. In this study, correlation of methicillin resistance phenotype was compared with methicillin resistance (mecA) gene carriage in 55 ...
متن کاملCharacteristics of environmental isolates of Legionella pneumophila.
Thirty-eight cultures of Legionella pneumophila isolated from surface waters were characterized by their morphological, tinctorial, biochemical, and serological properties and by their ability to produce disease in guinea pigs. Their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents also was tested. When they were compared with clinical isolates, no important differences were found between cultures from ...
