results the sequence analysis of the isolate confirmed as c. glabrata and deposited on ncbi genbank under the accession number no. kt763084-kt763123. the geometric mean mics against all the tested strains were as follows, in increasing order: casp (0.17 g/ml), vcz (0.67 g/ml), amb (1.1 g/ml), itz (1.82 g/ml), ktz (1.85 g/ml), and fcz (6.7 g/ml). the resistance rates of the isolates to casp, fcz...

Klebsiella pneumonia is a gram negative bacillus of which it's resistant strains are a common source of nosocomial infections . The goal of this study is determination of drug sensitivity of these resistant strains, and study of causes involved in the resistant especially the presence of plasmid. Ten different strains of klebsiella pneumoniae were isolated from clinical specimens collected from...

background and objectives: bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics has become a widespread public health prob- lem. the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of zinc oxide nanoparticles (zno nps) on the antibacterial activity of several conventional antibiotics against pseudomonas aeruginosa. materials and methods: zno nps were prepared by solvothermal method and dispersed...

the present study was conducted to investigate antimicrobial resistant pattern of escherichia coli (e. coli) strains isolated from clinical specimens of jordanian pediatric patients during the period from january to december 2008. a total of 444 e. coli strains were isolated from clinical specimens and tested for their susceptibility to different antimicrobial drugs. overall, high resistance ra...
