objective(s) extensive use of quinolones has been associated with raising level of resistance. in the current, we focused on assessing the prevalence of escherichia coli resistance to quinolones and frequency of qnra, qnrb and qnrs in non esbls (extended spectrum beta-lactamases) and esbls producing e. coli with blashv and blatem. materials and methods one hundred and fifty e. coli isolates wer...

conclusions the alcoholic extract of p. harmala was very effective against the selected esbl-producing e. coli isolates harboring the tem gene. therefore, it could be suggested as an antibacterial agent in the future. more researches are necessary for detecting the mechanism of this plant’s behavior and its pharmacological effects. results results of this study showed that in disk diffusion met...

Introduction: Antibiotic resistance, especially in Gram-negative uropathogens such as Escherichia coli, is the main barrier to treat urinary tract infection (UTI). In recent years, the dramatically increased resistance of E. coli to quinolones, a group of widely used antibiotics, has become a significant concern. Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, we collected 261 E. coli isola...

background and objectives: e. coli and klebsiella spp. are recognized as most prevalent bacteria causing urinary tract infection (uti), the most common bacterial infection. decreasing of antimicrobial susceptibility in urinary pathogens has made difficulty in treatment of uti. the aim of this study was to determine antibiotic susceptibility of e. coli and klebsiella spp. isolated from urine of ...

the aim of this study was to determine antibiotic resistance genes, phylogenetic groups and anti-microbial resistance patterns of escherichia coli isolates from fecal samples of healthy pet cats in kerman city. ninety e. coli isolates were recovered from obtained rectal swabs. antibiotic resistance pattern of the isolates against seven selected antibiotic was determined using disc diffusion met...

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) of the O157:H7 serotype is a worldwide zoonotic pathogen responsible for the majority of severe cases of human EHEC disease. The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of E. coli O157: H7/NM in raw meat samples from two provinces of Iran. During a period from March 2010 to March 2011. Two hundred and ninety five raw meat samples were...

Fifty E. coli strains isolated from chicken flocks were analyzed to determine their resistance to antimicrobial agents used in Tehran poultry industry. By using Mast Diagnostic kit only O6 serotype was identified. Multiple resistance to antibiotics was observed in all isolates. The highest rate of resistance was against Tetracycline (94%), followed by Rifampicin (90%), and Oxytetracycline (80%)...

in this study, to know about the phylogeny of escherichia coli isolated from broilers with collibacillosis in tabriz, 70 e. coli isolates recovered from broilers with collibacillosis were characterized for phylogenetic group (a, b1, b2, d) by multiplex pcr. of the all 70 samples, 35 (50%) isolates were classified as type a, 32 (45%) as type d, 2 (2.8%) as type b1 and 1 (2.8%) as type b2. thi...
