given the inappropriate use of antibiotics and prevalence of resistant bacteria, there is urgentneed for antibacterial drugs that have fewer side effects than antibiotics. satureja bachtiaricais a medicinal plant which had many uses in traditional medicine. in this research, the ethanolextract of leave of satureja bachtiarica is tested on coagulase-negative staphylococcus strains.materials and ...

background and objectives: infectious diarrhoeal diseases are great problem throughout the world and are responsible for considerable morbidity and mortality. shiga toxin-producing escherichia coli (stec) is a major cause of gastroenteritis that may be complicated by hemorrhagic colitis (hc) or the hemolytic uremic syndrome (hus), which is the main cause of acute renal failure in children. food...

one of the great challenges in the treatment of infectious diseases is the resistance of pathogenic bacteria against antibiotics, and antibiotic resistance to shigella is broadly observed in different parts of the world. the object of this study was to determine shigella antibiotic resistance pattern against the antibiotics such as ampicillin, amoxicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, chloram...

background and objectives: shigella plays an important role as a causative organism of acute gastroenteritis, in children and others. rapid emergence of antibiotic resistance warrants continuous monitoring of susceptibility pattern of bacterial isolates. we report here our findings about shigella spp. isolates and their drug resistance patterns in nepalese patients. materials and methods: the s...

BACKGROUND Antimicrobial resistance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a serious health problem in China. Gonococcal antimicrobial susceptibility has been monitored in Shanghai since 1988. In this study, we examined the changing pattern of gonococcal antimicrobial susceptibility based on data from N. gonorrhoeae isolates collected over the past 25 years. METHODS Approximately 100-200 isolates each y...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance in Helicobacter pylori isolated from the antrum and corpus of dyspeptic patients in Khon Kaen, Thailand, and to compare the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of H. pylori isolated from the antrum and corpus in individual patients. Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion, studying sus...
