[ 1 ] - Survey of accessory gene regulator (agr) groups and TSST-1 encoding gene (tst) in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from ewes with mastitis in the northwest of Iran
Accessory gene regulator (agr locus) is a global regulator of many virulence gene expressions inStaphylococcus aureus. Four interference classes related to genetic polymorphisms in the agr locus have sofar been described. In the present study, the agr locus specificity groups were studied within a total of 43 S.aureus isolates which were isolated from ewes with mastitis in three regions in the ...
[ 2 ] - The effect of ZnO nanoparticles on bacterial load of experimental infectious wounds contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus in mice
Objective (s): Bacterial infection is an important cause of delayed wound healing. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is the main agent causing these infections. Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles have antibacterial activity and also accelerate the wound healing process. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of ZnO nanoparticles on bacterial load reduction of the wound infection. M...
[ 3 ] - Anti-quorum sensing effects of Licochalcone A and Epigallocatechin-3-gallate against Salmonella Typhimurium from poultry sources
Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell density-dependent mechanism used by many pathogenic bacteria for regulating virulence gene expression. Inhibition or interruption of QS by medicinal plant remedies has been suggested as a new strategy for fighting against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This study aimed to assess the impact of sub-inhibitory concentrations of licochalcone A (LAA) and epigallocatechi...
