چکیده مقاله:

Introduction: Biofilm is a collection of microbial cells that are irreversibly suppressed and mildly washed away. The aggR gene is located on the main plasmid (pAA), which codes for many actuator factors. The pathogen strains of EAEC have an aggR gene, the gene has been identified in six classes of pathogenic E. coli.   Materials & Methods: In the present study, 60 stool samples from children with an average age of 4 to 7 years were collected and after biochemical examinations such as catalase, oxidase, and TSI environment were identified. Ethics code: IR.IAUS.REC.1397.016   Finding: The aggA gene was in 7 samples 11.6%, agg4A 9 samples 15%, aggR 5 positive 8%. It was also found that 28% of isolated isolates had at least one of the factors of aggressiveness, aggR, aggA, and agg4A.   Discussion & Conclusions: The typical EAEC strains have a high prevalence of aggR genes in isolates isolated in this region and are heterozygous according to the pattern of virulence factors. By limiting the infections of this bacterium, it is a vaccine against a strain of the pathogen.

Evaluation of ehxA, stx1, and stx2 Virulence Gene Prevalence in Cattle Escherichia coli Isolates by Multiplex PCR

  Today, it is nearly 25 years past from investigation of Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) which is able to produce Shiga toxins and cause different gastroenteritis. Since incidence of gastroenteritis due to STEC is increasing, it's necessary to develop rapid, specific and accurate procedures like PCR. In this study, we used PCR method to detect and identify STEC in cultures of 55 Escher...

multiplex pcr study of plasmid-mediated ampc beta-lactamase genes in clinical isolates of escherichia coli

background :   ampc β-lactamases are important cephalosporinases chromosomally encoded in many of enterobacteriaceae and a few other organisms where they mediate resistance to cephalothin, cefazolin, cefoxitin and penicillins. the six different families of plasmid-mediated ampc β-lactamases have been described, but no phenotypic test can discriminate among them. ampc multiplex pcr has been succ...

Detection of diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli virulence genes by multiplex-PCR method and their antibiotic susceptibility profile

Acute diarrhoeal disease is a public health problem and an important cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in developing countries. The etiology is varied, and the diarrheagenic Escherichiacolipathotypes are most important. Our objectives were detection of Diarrhoeagenic E. coli virulence genes by Multiplex-PCR method and their antimicrobial susceptibility profile. Fifty five E. Coli s...

Occurrence of genes encoding enterotoxins in uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates

To determine the presence of some toxins of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) in uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC), 138 urinary tract infection (UTI)-causing UPECs were analyzed. The astA , set , sen and cdtB genes were detected in 13 (9.4%), 2 (1.3%), 13 (9.4%) and 0 (0%) of UPEC isolates respectively. The results show that some genes encoding toxins can be transferred from DEC pathotypes to UPE...

The product biofilm by E.coli strain can cause serious problem for human health. Catheter is considered to be s suitable place for colonization of microorganisms, so that in %5-10 of patients who used catheter for only one day and also in all patients who used it for over 28 days, this colonization of bacteria is observed on catheter. This study is come out in order to compare biofilm formation...
