Clinical infectious outcomes associated with biofilm-related bacterial infections: a retrospective chart review
BACKGROUND Biofilms are associated with persistent infection. Reports characterizing clinical infectious outcomes and patient risk factors for colonization or infection with biofilm forming isolates are scarce. Our institution recently published a study examining the biofilm forming ability of 205 randomly selected clinical isolates. This present study aims to identify potential risk factors as...
متن کاملLow concentrations of local honey modulate ETA expression, and quorum sensing related virulence in drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa recovered from infected burn wounds
Objective(s): Honey’s ability to kill microorganisms and even eradication of chronic infections with drug-resistant pathogens has been documented by numerous studies. The present study is focused on the action of honey in its sub-inhibitory levels to impact on the pathogens coordinated behaviors rather than killing them. Materials and Methods:</strong...
متن کاملMolecular typing of nosocomial Staphylococcus aureus strains associated to biofilm based on the coagulase and protein A gene polymorphisms
Objective(s): Staphylococcus aureus is an important bacterial pathogen responsible for a variety numbers of nosocomial and community acquired infections. Biofilm formation is regarded as an important factor in the establishment of S. aureus infection. The contribution of the genetic background of S. aureus to biofilm formation is poorly understood. The aim of the present work was to genotype S....
متن کاملComparison of Congo Red Agar methods and tube turbidity in biofilm formation in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from cases of urinary tract infections in Samen Al-Aeme Hospital Bojnourd
Introduction Biofilm can be called a bacterial community that often forms on living or non-living surfaces and is common in natural, industrial, and hospital environments. Klebsiella pneumoniae as a pathogen has the potential to produce biofilms. Understanding biofilm formation in biofilm-forming bacteria is important. The aim of this study was to investigate the biofilm formation in isolates ...
متن کاملاثر مخمر پروبیوتیکی ساکارومایسس سرویزیه بر تشکیل بیوفیلم استافیلوکوکوس اورئوس
Background and Objective: Biofilm formation is an important virulence factor in Staphylococcus aureus. Most infections associated with biofilm of this bacterium are difficult to treat with antibiotics. As yet, a lot of mechanisms have been explained for probiotic yeast functions against bacterial infections, but few studies have been done on their effects on biofilm formation. The aim of this s...
