It has previously been shown that the barrier system for high environmental salinity is closely related to the salt-resistance of Staphyloccus aureus. The present investigation was undertaken to clarify the energy dependency for the maintenance of intracellular univalent cation contents in cells grown on high concentration of salt containing medium. The results are summarized as follows: (1) Th...

Diabetic foot infections, Polymicrobial, ESB, Carbapenemases Producers, MRSA, MDR Background: Foot infections are one of the major complications of diabetes mellitus and are a significant risk factor for lower extremity amputation. Providing effective antimicrobial therapy is an important component in treating these infections. Objectives: This study investigates the microbial causes of diabeti...

We had previously proposed the presence of permanent stimulatory influences in the tissue microenvironment surrounding the aged mesenteric lymphatic vessels (MLV), which influence aged lymphatic function. In this study, we performed immunohistochemical labeling of proteins known to be present in mast cells (mast cell tryptase, c-kit, prostaglandin D(2) synthase, histidine decarboxylase, histami...

Vi khuẩn Gram dương Staphylococcus aureus (tụ cầu vàng) là một mầm bệnh phổ biến gây ra nhiều truyền nhiễm nghiêm trọng ở người, đặc biệt môi trường viện. Do đó, việc tìm kiếm và phát triển các loại thuốc kháng sinh mới hoặc thế hệ để điều trị trùng do S. đang vấn đề cấp thiết đối với y học Việt Nam nói riêng trên toàn giới chung. Trong nghiên cứu này, chúng tôi đã phân lập vi từ nhân da tiến h...

Nosocomial infections caused by methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRSA) pose a serious problem in many countries. This study aimed to determine the antibacterial susceptibility patterns of methicillin sensitive and resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates from the hospitalized patients. Totally 356 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) including 200, 137 and 19 corresponding to MSSA,...

Central Nervous System (CNS) infections like meningitis and cerebral abscess caused by Staphylococcus aureus are usually seen in patients with neurosurgical interventions or immune compromised patients or patients with cardiac vegetation's. They are extremely rare in healthy patients. We report a case of a 44 year old Indian gentleman who was perfectly healthy with no known co morbidities, whic...

staphyloccus aureus is one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections. in order to investigate the s. sureus colonization rate, 378 samples were taken from the nose and. throat of staffs of 4 university hospitals in kerman.the control group consists of the same number of people with similar age and sex distribution. seventy three hospitalized paients were also tested in this respect....
