partially inhibited /Mactamase biosynthesis in Enterobacteria species which possess inducible /Mactamase13). Further, it has also been demonstrated that CLDM reduced the /Mactamase biosynthesis in Enterobacteria and Pseudomonas bacteria14'15). This information may provide the possibility of combination therapy using /Mactam antibiotics with CLDMagainst /Mactam antibioticresistant bacteria. It i...

Periurethral carriage rates of enterobacteria have been studied in 20 normal women, 34 patients between episodes of bacteriuria, 34 patients with the "urethral syndrome," and 15 asymptomatic abacteriuric patients with a previous history of frequency and dysuria.Over a six-week period no difference in the Escherichia coli carriage rate was shown between these four groups. The carriage of all ent...

Background. The role of Aeromonas species (sp.) in bacteremia in Japanese patients with liver cirrhosis is poorly understood. Aim. To establish the importance of Aeromonas sp. as a cause of bacteremia in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods. Clinical and serological features and short-term prognosis were retrospectively investigated and compared in Japanese patients with bacteremia due to Aer...

BACKGROUND Iron is essential for the growth and virulence of many pathogenic enterobacteria, whereas beneficial barrier bacteria, such as lactobacilli, do not require iron. Thus, increasing colonic iron could select gut microbiota for humans that are unfavorable to the host. OBJECTIVE The objective was to determine the effect of iron fortification on gut microbiota and gut inflammation in Afr...

Here, we report the draft genome sequences of Edwardsiella ictaluri strains LADL11-100 and LADL11-194, two isolates from natural outbreaks of edwardsiellosis in the zebrafish Danio rerio, as well as the sequences of the plasmids carried by the zebrafish strain of E. ictaluri.

During a two-year period from January 1979, 260 patients have been involved in an outbreak of carriage and infection due to gentamicin-resistant enterobacteria. We have examined the duration of carriage of such enterobacteria and have compared the carriage of Klebsiella with that of other resistant enterobacteria. Carriage of gentamicin-resistant enterobacteria occurred most frequently and was ...

Microcin C7 (McC), widely distributed in enterobacteria, is a promising antibiotic against antibiotic resistance [...].

Edwardsiella piscicida is a bacterial fish pathogen with a high degree of virulence. The strain ACC35.1 was isolated from diseased turbot in Europe. The draft genome sequence comprises 3.84 Mb with a G+C content of 59.8% and >3,450 protein-coding genes.

An Edwardsiella piscicida-like species is a Gram-negative facultative anaerobe that causes disease in some fish species. In this report, we present the complete and annotated genome of isolate LADL05-105, recovered from cultured tilapia reared in Louisiana, which contains a chromosome of 4,142,037 bp and no plasmids.

extended-spectrum β-lactamase (esbl)-producing enterobacteria has become a considerable global concern because of their potential dissemination in humans, in domestic animals, wildlife and the environment. the present study aimed to explore the esbl producing  enterobacteria in aquatic sources of bangladesh as the water may be the potential source of dissemination of this alarming antimicrobial...
