results in total, 73 isolates were collected and diagnosed as s. pneumoniae. isolates were susceptible to ofloxacin 95.9%, vancomycin 93%, penicillin 78%, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole 61.6%, ceftriaxone 53.5%, meropenem 52%, cefotaxime 46.5%, and erythromycin 8.2%. of the 15 prsp isolates, the pbp2b gene was identified in 12 (80%). in 1 penicillin-intermediate s. pneumoniae isolate the pbp2b w...

background: sarcocystosis in south american camelids (sac) is an important parasitic disease which results in economical loss due to carcass condemnation. meat products from camelids are significant source of animal protein in several american countries. sarcocystis spp. producing macroscopical cysts in these animals have been nominated as s. aucheniae, s. tilopodi, and s. guanicoecanis. the ai...

objective(s) staphylococcus aureus is both a successful human commensal and a major pathogen. in this study we investigated the genetic diversity of 26 s. aureus isolates recovered from human skin and urinary tract infections. materials and methods typing procedure for the studied s. aureus isolates was performed based on pcr amplification of the aroa gene, which encodes the enzyme 5-enolpyruvy...

objective: infertility is one of the major important social issues. because of the asymptomatic cervical infection, it has caused the problem to remain silent in the majority of patients without diagnosis and treatment. the present study was intended to assess the frequency of staphylococcus aureus isolated from infertile women's endocervix in northwest iran. materials and methods: in a descrip...

Abstract Background Whole exome sequencing (WES) is widely adopted in clinical and research settings; however, one of the practical concerns potential false negatives due to incomplete breadth depth coverage for several exons clinically implicated genes. In some cases, a targeted gene panel testing may be dependable option ascertain true genomic variants known disease-associated We developed we...

Milk is considered a nutritious food because it contains several important nutrients including proteins and vitamins. Conversely, it can be a vehicle for several pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. This study aimed to analyze the frequency of genes encoding the nine Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) and enterotoxin gene profiles in S. aureus isolates derived from raw bovine milk....
