GRAM NEGATIVE BACILLI IN BURNS
In a period of nine months, 225 strains of Gram-negative bacilli isolated from burns were identified by a variety of tests in two burn centers in Tehran. The most common species were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter agglomerans, Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Many strains of acinetobacter spp, providencia spp, proteus spp, ser...
متن کاملRapid differentiation of fermentative from nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli in positive blood cultures by an impedance method.
Rapid differentiation of fermentative gram-negative bacilli (fermenters) from nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli (nonfermenters) in positive blood cultures may help physicians to narrow the choice of appropriate antibiotics for empiric treatment. An impedance method for direct differentiation of fermenters from nonfermenters was investigated. The bacterial suspensions (or positive culture br...
متن کاملIn Vitro Activity of Piperacillin against 497 Gram Negative Bacilli Isolated ' from Blood Cultures
Agar dilution sensitivity tests to piperacillin were performed on 497 strains of gram ne gative bacilli isolated from blood culture of patients admitted to Maharaj Nakom Chiang Mai Hos pital. Piperacillin was found to have significant activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Aero monos spp and Enterobacter spp. A substantial proportion of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumo niae and Acineto...
متن کاملEvaluation of the VITEK 2 system for rapid direct identification and susceptibility testing of gram-negative bacilli from positive blood cultures.
This study explores the possibility of combining the BacT/Alert Microbial Detection System with the VITEK 2 system to achieve rapid bacterial identification and susceptibility testing. Direct inoculation of bacterial suspension to the VITEK 2 ID-GNB card and AST-NO09 card was made by differential centrifugation of blood cultures of organisms with gram-negative enteric bacillus-like morphology. ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Merlin MICRONAUT system for rapid direct susceptibility testing of gram-positive cocci and gram-negative bacilli from positive blood cultures.
Bloodstream infections are life-threatening conditions which require the timely initiation of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. We evaluated the automated Merlin MICRONAUT system for rapid direct microtiter broth antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of gram-positive cocci and gram-negative bacilli from BACTEC 9240 bottles with positive blood cultures in comparison to the standard method ...
