بررسی میزان مقاومت به نالیدیکسیک اسید در سالمونلاهای تیفوئیدی و غیرتیفوئیدی جدا شده از بیماران بستری در یک دوره یکساله 85-1384

    Background & Aim: Nalidixic acid is a quinolone antibiotic with excellent in vitro and in vivo activity against salmonella. It is often the first choice for treating drug resistance salmonella infections. Nalidixic acid resistance can often lead to resistance to fluoroquinolones such as ciprofloxacin. In this survey the extent of salmonella infections, the salmonella strains involved, antib...

Identification of Salmonella spp. and Salmonella typhimurium by a multiplex PCR-based assay from poultry carcasses in Mashhad- Iran

Poultry meat has been identified as one of the principal foodborne sources of Salmonella. In this preliminary study the prevalence of Salmonella spp. and its typhimurium serovar contamination of broiler carcasses, were determined. Using the rinse test method, numbers of 60 samples, representing 20 broiler flocks, were collected from poultry carcasses after the chilling stage in the processing l...

Temperature-sensitive glutamate dehydrogenase mutants of Salmonella typhimurium.

Mutants of Salmonella typhimurium defective in glutamate dehydrogenase activity were isolated in parent strains lacking glutamate synthase activity by localizcd mutagenesis or by a general mutagenesis combined with a cycloserine enrichment for glutamate auxotrophs. Two mutants with temperature-sensitive phenotypes had glutamate dehydrogenase activities that were more thermolabile than that of a...

Comparison of Six Culture Methods for Salmonella Isolation from Poultry Fecal Samples

Abstract Background and Objective: Salmonellosis is one of the most important food-borne bacterial zoonotic diseases worldwide, and poultry and its products are the major sources for salmonella transmission to human. Isolation of Salmonellaenterica from poultry needs bacteriologic enrichment and selected cultures of fecal samples. In this study, different culture methods for the isolation of s...
