statement of problem: surface disinfection is an important aspect of infection control in dentistry. a new generation of quaternary ammonium components (qacs) is gaining popularity as high-level disinfectants. two types of qac sprays, uniseptaquick and solarsept, are being widely used by iranian dentists. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficiency of unisepta quick a...

background and aims: the indiscriminate use of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance in the treatment of infections caused by bacteria such as pseudomonas aeruginosa. the presence of integrons in pseudomonas is clearly associated with multidrug resistances. therefore, this study aimed at tracking class i, ii and iii integrons of antibiotic-resistant isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa th...

Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain YL84, which was isolated from compost. This strain was found to be a chitinase-producing quorum-sensing bacterium.

Diastereomeric 2-methoxycyclopentyl analogues of a natural quorum sensing signaling molecule from Pseudomonas aeruginosa were synthesized and screened in pigment production assays with P. aeruginosa and Serratia strain ATCC39006.

The mechanisms for Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonisation in the airways of patients with bronchiectasis and cystic fibrosis are poorly understood. P. aeruginosa could evade mucociliary clearance by adhering to the basement membrane at areas denuded of intact respiratory epithelium. The authors have developed an in vitro model to study P. aeruginosa adherence to human basement membrane type-IV col...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa has a broad range of habitation, from aquatic environments to human lungs. The coexistence of quorum-sensing and quorum-quenching activities occurs in P. aeruginosa strain MW3a. In this work, we present the draft genome sequence of P. aeruginosa MW3a, an interesting bacterium isolated from a marine environment.

To explore the effects of space flight on microorganisms, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 was sent into orbit for 398 h on the spacecraft ShenZhou VIII. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the P. aeruginosa strain LCT-PA41, determined after space flight.

Two Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from children with bacteremia in Mexico City were sequenced using PacBio RS-II single-molecule real-time (SMRT) technology. The strains consist of a 7.0- to 7.4-Mb chromosome, with a high content of mobile elements, and variation in the genetic content of class 1 integron In1409.

conclusions: this study detected multiple drug resistance in pseudomonas aeruginosa including resistance to β-lactams, aminoglycosides, and fluoroquinolones. therefore, identification of drug resistance patterns in p. aeruginosa and detection of pan-resistant producing isolates are of great importance in prevention and control of infections in burn center ward. background: serious infections by...
