on a slide proved highly useful in identifying the organism. Later we found that biochemical and animal inoculation tests were not necessary for identification. A gram-negative thick, short rod-shaped organism growing in characteristically sticky colonies and showing high agglutinability with antiplaguc serum were sufficient for identification. Bacteriological examination for Past, pesiis prove...

The study was carried out in Polish goat population to estimate the prevalence of nasal cavity infection with various staphylococcal species including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA), investigate potential permissive role small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) and determine level clonality S. aureus isolates. Nasal swabs blood samples were collec-ted from 1300 clinically healthy adu...

Amaç: Bakteremi veya septisemi vakalarında kan kültüründe mikroorganizmaların teşhisi ve antibiyotik direnç/duyarlılıklarının tespiti tedavi için çok önemlidir. 2015 Ocak-Aralık ayları arasında laboratuvara gelen kültürü örneklerinden izole edilen bakterilerden Staphylococ suşlarının direnç profillerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
 Materyal Metot: Mikrobiyoloji Laboratuvarına Staphylococc...

syndrome: Recurrent "Cold" staphylococ-cal abscesses. Pseudolymphoma syndrome, as a hypersensitive reaction to anticonvulsant drugs especially phenytoin, carbamaze-pine, tridone and phenobarbitone is well known(l-4). Its pathogenesis is uncertain. It consists of a triad of fever, generalized rash and lymphadenopathy. Varying degrees of VOLUME 34-SEFTEMBER 1997 7. Hill HR, Quie PG. Raised IgE le...

In a 2007 report of a collaborative study that analyzed data from 2005, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that Staphylococcus aureus is the most important cause of serious and fatal infections in the United States [1]. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains are well recognized as posing substantial infection problems for hospitals, but in the last 15 years, com...

conclusions resistance to oxacillin and other antibiotics was high, and most of the isolates were found to be multi-drug resistance (mdr). plasmid analysis of representative s. aureus isolates also demonstrates the presence of a wide range of plasmid sizes, with no consistent relationship between plasmid profiles and resistance phenotypes. regular surveillance of hospital infections and monitor...

background protein a is the virulence factors of staphylococcus aureus rolling in its pathogenesis, and its gene is used for typing. polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (pcr-rflp) with different enzymes has been used for this action. objectives in this study, we used bsp143i enzyme for digestion of the gene, coding protein a (spa gene) in s. aureus. the bacteria w...

conclusions in the present study, we found a high prevalence of mrsa at the hospitals studied. the findings emphasized the increased prevalence of mrsa isolates containing different toxin and adhesion genes, probably accompanied by antimicrobial resistance. infection with such isolates worsens the clinical outcomes as well as the morbidity and mortality rates in hospitalized patients in icus. m...
