antimicrobial resistance in microorganisms

Prevalence of Microorganisms Causing Septicemia and Determination of Antimicrobial Resistance in Intensive Care Unit

The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of microorganisms isolated from blood samples of patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and the rate of their resistance to common administered antibiotics in an Iranian ICU. One-hundred patients with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndromes (SIRS), hospitalized in ICU of Sina Hospital, Tehran, Iran, were entered to this cross-...

Monitoring and surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in microorganisms associated with aquatic animals.

The World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) Aquatic Animal Health Code recommends that programmes forthe monitoring and surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in microorganisms associated with aquatic animals be initiated by the appropriate authorities. This paper discusses the classes of bacteria to be studied in such programmes and the methods of sample collection to be employed. It also...

In vitro antimicrobial and resistance-modifying activities of aqueous crude khat extracts against oral microorganisms.

OBJECTIVES To assess antimicrobial activities of aqueous crude khat (Catha edulis) extracts against a panel of oral microorganisms and to test their ability to modify bacterial resistance to tetracycline and penicillin in vitro. DESIGN Lyophilized aqueous extracts were prepared from three khat cultivars. The agar dilution method of the NCCLS was used to test the extracts, at concentrations of...
