Purpose: In recent years, multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has appeared and caused outbreaks of hospital infections all over the world. Close monitoring this pathogen other A. baumanii complex species is considered critical importance to public health organizations. The reliable identification method able distinguish from genetically close needed, because these are unable be differen...

Antisepsis of the hands medical personnel is one most important steps in process patient care, since direct contact can cause cross-transfer potentially pathogenic microorganisms at surgical sites. This study aimed to analyze prevalence on 131 surgeons a university hospital before procedure. Swabs were collected from each clinician’s and after handwashing. The samples placed transport medium im...

BACKGROUND: Approximately 14–50% of severe COVID-19 patients are admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) that acquires a multidrug-resistant bacterial infection (MDR) and worsens clinical outcomes patients. AIM: We aim determine increased risk MDR in ICU including large-spectrum antibiotic administration, invasive procedure performance (mechanical ventilation), patient. METHODS: analyzed 227 ...

New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase 1 (NDM-1) is a monomeric, plasmid-encoded enzyme that can hydrolyze β-lactam antibiotics over a wide range. Presence of this enzyme renders the host bacteria immune to carbapenems, the so-called last resort drugs, as reported in Klebsiella pneumonia, Escherichia coli and Acenetobacter baumanii. Multi-drug resistance of nosocomial pathogens as above possess a seriou...

Non fermenting gram negative bacteria were considered to be nonpathogenic and commensal of little significance. Recently there has been a tremendous interest in these organisms as they are being isolated from clinical specimens with increasing frequency. So this study aims at isolation, identification and antibiotic susceptibility of non-fermenting gram negative bacilli from various clinical sp...

Rhizosecretion of functional recombinant proteins from in vitro cultured roots into the hydroponic medium offers an attractive technology to simplify down-stream purification procedures. Aim of the present study was the production and secretion of the antimicrobial peptide (AMP) ranalexin from Nicotiana tabacum hairy roots which were transformed by agroinfection. A His-tagged ranalexin was expr...

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are both highly prevalent chronic diseases in the United States. Association between culture positivity of CPAP machines and sinus samples has not been studied in patients with both disease states. Our objective was to compare the microbes present in the sinus cavities and CPAP reservoirs of patients with both CRS and OSA. Patients ...
