Continuous faecal pollution in source water is a global problem that is particularly debilitating to rural communities that are directly dependent on untreated source water for all their domestic and other purposes. The elevation of indicator bacteria levels (such as the faecal coliforms) in the water may pose a public health risk. This study reports the results of microbial monitoring of the M...

Beta-lactamase production is one of the major mechanisms of resistance amongst bacteria especially the enteric bacilli. The purpose of this study is to assess the in-vitro activity of Sulperazon, a combination of cefoperazone and an irreversible beta-lactamase inhibitor, sulbactam, against the cefoperazone resistant isolates of aerobic gram-negative bacilli. A total of 92 such strains were test...

Urinary Tract infections are one of the most common bacterial infections in human. On the present study urine sample of suspected UTI patients were included. Total 23 samples were found to be positive for bacterial infection in which predominant species was Escherichia coli 13 (56.52%) and 10 (43.48%) were found to be other bacterial species i.e. Proteus spp. 4 (17.3%), Citrobacter spp. 3 (13%)...

The aim of the study was to determine effect GM-soy on microbiocenosis white colonized rats in experiment. In normal microflora colon fed with GM-free soybeans, it found that different quantitative differences were from those intact laboratory animals Bifidobacterium spp (1.28-fold decrease), Lactobacillus (1.53-fold Enterobacter spp, and Proteus (4.1). an increase 6.25 times). This did not ind...

Este estudio se realizó con el objetivo de evaluar la resistencia cepas bacterianas aisladas y caracterizadas procedentes ambientes nosocomiales, mismo durante los meses enero junio 2018. Se llevó a cabo en dos Nosocomios Región Azuero, donde evaluó las siguientes salas: Cuidados Intensivos, Sala Hospitalización Hombres, Mujeres Cuarto Urgencia. Las muestras fueron tomadas por técnica Q-Swab, p...

urinary tract infection (uti) is a common bacterial illness in children. knowledge of the antimicrobial resistance patterns of common uropathogens in children according to local epidemiology is essential for providing clinically appropriate, cost effective therapy for uti. the aim of this study was to determine the distribution of urinary tract infections in a referral hospital, children’s medi...

to study the putative transfer of antibiotic resistance from broiler breeders to human, hen’s eggs and theirday-old chicks were examined for the presence of bacteria. the most frequently isolated organisms indecreasing order were: streptococcus spp., bacillus spp., staphylococcus spp., klebsiella spp., enterobacterspp. and escherichia coli followed by citrobacter spp., proteus spp. and pseudomo...

An outbreak of occupational diseases involving 38 metal workers with local infections on the hands and the face (53%), bronchitis (29%), and bronchopneumonia (18%) urged an examination of 150 samples of emulsions which the workers used in processing metals. Among the isolated bacteria, the most frequent was Pseudomonas aeruginosa (48%), followed by Escherichia coli (44%), Proteus spp. (11%), En...

Sodium 6{D(-)-a(4-hydroxyl-1,5 naphthyridine-3-carboxamido)phenylacetamido} penicillanate (PC-904) is a new semisynthetic penicillin with broadspectrum activity against gram-positive cocci and gram-negative bacilli. At a concentration of 1.56 ,ug/ml, it inhibited 100% of isolates of Proteus mirabilis, 89%o of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 67% of Escherichia coli, and 45% of Enterobacter spp. At a con...

The development of the poultry industry in Albania is mainly based on the existence of intensive modern farms with huge capacities, which often are mixed with other forms. Colibacillosis is commonly displayed regardless of the type of breeding, delivering high mortality in poultry industry. The mechanisms with which pathogen enterobacters are able to cause the infection in poultry are not yet c...
