The study set out to look at the clinical strain of A. faecalis's antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Both biochemical and molecular approaches were used identify A.faecalis. VITEK compact system was analyze strain's profile. use PCR evaluated determine presence resistance genes. It also determined whether determinants could be transferred. that feacalis showed imipenem, cefepime, ceftazidime, g...

Background Emergence of multi-drug resistant uropathogenic E. coli strains is an increasing problem to empirical treatment of urinary tract infections in many countries. This study investigated the magnitude of this problem in Jordan. Methods A total of 262 E. coli isolates were recovered from urine samples of Jordanian patients which were suspected to have urinary tract infections (UTIs). Al...

The purpose of this study was to detect carbapenemase genes in clinical isolates of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) obtained from patients admitted to Hua-Hin Hospital, Prachuab Khiri Khan Province, Thailand between January and December 2014. Screening of CRE was initially determined using disk diffusion method, and subsequently using modified Hodge test (MHT). Multiplex PCR was e...
