conclusions the results illustrated the diversity of antibacterial resistance and virulence gene profiles among different sccmec types of s. aureus. the increased prevalence of methicillin-resistant s. aureus isolates containing different toxin and antibiotic resistance genes is a serious threat for the hospitalized patients in the intensive care units. methods in this cross-sectional study tha...

The combination of NO-releasing nanoparticles with anticancer therapies might reverse multidrug resistance in cells.

Approximately half a million people are thought to develop multidrug-resistant tuberculosis annually. Barely 20% of these people currently receive recommended treatment and only about 10% are successfully treated. Poor access to treatment is probably driving the current epidemic, via ongoing transmission. Treatment scale-up is hampered by current treatment regimens, which are lengthy, expensive...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the presence of Klebsiella pneumoniae and phenotypically carbapenemase, extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL), acquired-AmpC beta-lactamase, multiple antibiotic resistance isolates in faeces budgerigars parrots. A total 96 faecal samples belonging 54 42 parrots were used study. Cultivation performed on various media for identification pneuomiae from col...

Abstract.
 
 Multidrug resistance is still a major health problem worldwide. Biofilm formation was related to the of bacteria mechanism. Acinetobacter baumannii, one that cause nosocomial infections, given particular attention due its high prevalence resistance. The current study address observing antibacterial activity and antibiofilm Curcuma domestica rhizome extract against multidr...

Migratory birds have been postulated as potential spreaders of antibiotic resistance. Multidrug-resistant Cellulosimicrobium sp. strain KWT-B was isolated from the feces of Hirundo rustica A draft genome sequence indicated that the strain harbors multidrug-resistant transporters, multidrug efflux pumps, a vancomycin-resistant protein, and metallo-beta-lactamases.

Multidrug exporters are a class of membrane proteins that remove antibiotics from the cytoplasm of bacteria and in the process confer multidrug resistance to the organism. This chapter outlines the sample preparation and optimization of oriented solid-state NMR experiments applied to the study of structure and dynamics for the model transporter EmrE from the small multidrug resistance (SMR) fam...

Objective(s): Antibacterial materials are so significant in the textile industry, water disinfection, medicine, and food packaging. Unfortunately, organic compounds for sterilization show toxicity to the human body; therefore, the interest in inorganic disinfectants such as metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) is increasing. Materials and Methods: Nickel and nickel hydroxide nanoparticles (NiNPs ...

Of 162 multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from Taiwan, 60.5% were found to belong to the Beijing family on the basis of spoligotyping results. IS6110 restriction fragment length polymorphism fingerprinting showed genetic diversity among the multidrug-resistant isolates. Furthermore, 90.1% of the multidrug-resistant isolates had mutations in the rpoB gene, and 11 novel allel...
