Urinary Passage Infections

Development of resistant bacteria isolated from dogs with otitis externa or urinary tract infections after exposure to enrofloxacin in vitro.

Minimum inhibitory concentrations for enrofloxacin were determined for 63 bacterial isolates from dogs with otitis externa or urinary tract infections. Development of resistant mutants was determined after exposing the isolates to enrofloxacin in vitro for up to five serial passages. Results indicated that Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus spp isolates exposed to enrofloxacin developed re...

Background: For biotechnological application, selected lactic acid bacteria strains belonging to the genera Lactobacillus (Lb) are proposed as an alternative to the antibiotics for the prevention and treatment of urogenital tract infections. Objectives: Isolating and selecting vaginal lactobacilli strains for probiotic use based on their technological and probiotic aptitudes. Materials and Meth...

Prevalence of Bacterial Urinary Tract Infections in Patients before and after of Kidney Transplantation

Abstract Background and Objective: Urinary tract infections and bacteremia are the major problems in renal transplant patients, which are mostly due to immunesuppressive regimens, surgery, and exposure to the germs in hospital. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of bacterial agents in the blood and urine samples of kidney transplant candidates. Material and Methods: In t...

Use of 5-Enolpyruvylshikmate-3-Phosphate Synthase Encoding Gene for Typing of Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Skin and Urinary Tract Infections of Human

Objective(s) Staphylococcus aureus is both a successful human commensal and a major pathogen. In this study we investigated the genetic diversity of 26 S. aureus isolates recovered from human skin and urinary tract infections. Materials and Methods Typing procedure for the studied S. aureus isolates was performed based on PCR amplification of the aroA gene, which encodes the enzyme 5-enolpyr...
