Background: According to numerous reports, the contamination rates of C. jejuni (C. jejuni) and Campylobacter coli coli) in animal sources, food products, human clinical specimens were high Iran. Objectives: This study aimed estimate prevalence rate these bacterial species Fars province, south Methods: A total 370 poultry carcasses randomly collected from five slaughterhouses January 2019 June ...

Balish, Edward (Syracuse University, Syracuse, N.Y.), and A. W. Phillips. Growth and virulence of Candida albicans after oral inoculation in the chick with a monoflora of either Escherichia coli or Streptococcus faecalis. J. Bacteriol. 91:1744-1749. 1966.-Bacterial protection against intestinal infection by Candida albicans was investigated in chicks with a monoflora of either Escherichia coli ...

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157: H7 is one of the most important causes of bloody diarrhea. This bacterium is able to make bloody diarrhea or Hemorrhagic Colitis (HC) through verotoxin or shigatoxin production, and in acute forms it may lead to Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) or Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpurea (TTP). Contamination with E. coli O157:H7 usually happens after consumpt...

The prevalence and diversity of Campylobacter in 24 pig herds with and without cattle or poultry was investigated. Feces was collected on each farm from 20 pigs and, if present, 20 cattle or poultry, and examined for Campylobacter spp, including speciation, serotyping and PFGE. C. jejuni was found in pigs in 8% of herds, but only in <1% of pigs, while C. coli was isolated from 92% of pigs. In c...

background: integrons are mobile genetic elements able to obtain the antibiotic resistance gene cassettes. the prevalence of integrons in the enterobacteriaceae family has been varied and played an important role in the development of the drug resistant bacteria. the present study aimed to investigate the contribution of class 2 and 3 integrons in drug resistant diarrheagenic escherichia coli s...

We recently showed that A(2A) adenosine receptor activation by endogenous adenosine contributes to interleukin-10 (IL-10) production in polymicrobial sepsis. Here we investigated the molecular mechanisms underpinning this interaction between adenosine receptor signaling and infection by exposing macrophages to Escherichia coli. We demonstrated using receptor knockout mice that A(2A) receptor ac...

The effect of trans-cinnamaldehyde (TC) on the inactivation of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in undercooked ground beef patties was investigated. A five-strain mixture of E. coli O157:H7 was inoculated into ground beef (7.0log CFU/g), followed by addition of TC (0, 0.15, and 0.3%). The meat was formed into patties and stored at 4 degrees C for 5 days or at -18 degrees C for 7 days. The patties were ...

We present an optimized multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme with universal primer sets for amplifying and sequencing the seven target genes of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli. Typing was expanded by sequence determination of the genes flaA and flaB using optimized primer sets. This approach is compatible with the MLST and flaA schemes used in the PubMLST database and results in...

An intervening sequence (IVS) can be present or absent in the 23S rRNA of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli. As part of a survey, we used a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay to detect the presence of the IVS in 43 isolates of C. coli and 82 isolates of C. jejuni. An IVS was present in 40 (93.0%) of the C. coli and only 34 (41.5%) of the C. jejuni isolates. Twelve (27.9%) of the C....
