Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic and arthritic autoimmune disease affecting millions of people throughout the world. During the last 4 decades extensive data indicate that subclinical urinary tract infection by Proteus mirabilis has a role in the aetiopathogenesis of RA based on cross-reactivity or molecular mimicry between Proteus haemolysin and RA-associated HLA-DRB1 alleles as well as...

In Mexico, zero tolerance regulation is practiced regarding Salmonella in food products. the presence of which is verified by the procedure described in NOM 114-SSA-1994. During the period between August 2002 and March 2003, 245 food samples were tested using this procedure in the Central Laboratories of the Department of Health for the State of Jalisco (CEESLAB). Of these 245 samples, 35 showe...

Three phenylalanine-negative Proteus vulgaris strains were isolated from three different sources. The significance of these Proteus strains has not been fully recognized.

BACKGROUND Proteus syndrome is a rare developmental disorder of unknown aetiology. It is a disorder characterized by postnatal overgrowth affecting multiple tissues. Proteus syndrome is most frequently manifested in skeletal changes. As manifestations of Proteus syndrome are highly variable, and many are found in other overgrowth syndromes, and due to inconsistent application of diagnostic crit...

background :    proteus spp. belongs to the family of enterobacteriaceae . these bacteria are gram-negative and motile microorganisms and known as the third most common causes of urinary tract infections. the aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of some secondary metabolites from probiotic strains of lactobacillus spp. on swarming and growth of proteus mirabilis and p. vulgar...

abstract         background and objective: lactic acid bacteria are gram-positive, catalase-negative, nonsporulating, either rod- or coccus-shaped bacteria that have beneficial effects on their hosts by producing antimicrobial substances such as lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, bacteriocins and biosurfactants. bacteriocins are antimicrobial peptides that are produced by bacteria and can inhibit ...
