Evaluation of growth inhibition activity of myxobacterial extracts against multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
The worldwide dissemination of multi drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii strains has caused serious concern and high rate of mortality in recent decades that originate from limited effective antibiotics in the treatment of A. baumannii infections. Myxobacteria are Gram-negative bacteria that are important for their complex lifestyle and production of novel structurally secondary metabolites ...
متن کاملAntibacterial Effect Leaf Extract of Avicennia marina on Standard and Clinical Strains of Acinetobacter baumannii
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen and a nosocomial infection agent. Antibiotic resistance in this organism results in serious health problem such as treatment failure and increased mortality. Mangrove plants, especially Avicennia marina, are a potential bioresource for new drugs as they have been used in traditional medicine. This study aimed to investigate antib...
متن کاملDrug Resistance Patterns and Genotyping of Acinetobacter baumannii Strains Isolated from Patients Admitted to Shahrekord Teaching Hospitals Using REP-PCR
Background & objectives: In recent years, Acinetobacter baumannii has been shown to be associated with several nosocomial infections, including pneumonia, bacteraemia, urinary tract infections, wound infection and meningitis. This organism can survive in the hospital environment and rapidly develops resistance to many antibiotics. The molecular genotyping can increase our knowledge about the sp...
متن کاملEvaluation of antibacterial effect of Myrtus communis against Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains
Because of inappropriate use of antibiotics and prevalence of resistant bacteria, there is urgentneed for antibacterial drugs that have fewer side effects than antibiotics. Myrtus communis is amedicinal plant which had many uses in traditional medicine. In this study, ethanol leave extractof this plant is tested on Acinetobacter baumannii. In the case of antimicrobial evaluation ofplants, one o...
متن کاملCLSI based antibiogram profile and the detection of MDR and XDR strains of Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from urine samples
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is an emerging nosocomial pathogen causing serious complications due to the propensity of its multi-drug resistant property. Due to the indiscriminate and wide-spread use of antibiotics, A. baumannii strains emerge as MDR-Ab, XDR-Ab and in recent years pan-DR-Ab strains. Routine therapy incorporates the application of fewer antibiotics and antibiotic surveill...
