materials and methods two-hundred pasteurized (n = 100) and nonpasteurized (n = 100) cheese samples were collected. the initial isolation was performed on pemba specific medium. antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed using several antibiotic disks, according to the guidelines of the clinical laboratory and standards institute. specific primers amplifying the hbla enterotoxin-encoding g...

background rheumatoid arthritis (ra) is the most common chronic inflammatory disease. the staphylococcal superantigens are considered as the causative agent of ra disease. objectives this study aimed to assess the presence of staphylococcal enterotoxin d in synovial fluid and blood of patients with ra. patients and methods a total of 120 blood and sf samples of patients with ra were studied. ba...

conclusions the results revealed, the specific primers that amplified the ente gene were able to amplify the staphylococcal enterotoxin-like toxin type p gene. the specific primers for the entp gene were amplified a fragmented gene (700 bp) showed 100% homology with entp reference gene and also 80% homology with enta and ente genes. results the pcr amplification method was optimized for entp ge...

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to molecularly identify different species Aeromonas isolated from farmed tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) North Brazil, and evaluate their pathogenic potential by the presence virulence genes. From extraction bacterial DNA, PCR (polymerase chain reaction) primers 16S rDNA, aerA (cytolytic enterotoxin), ast (cytotoxic enterotoxin) act were performed. Of 24 isol...

The present study was aimed to identify the frequency of coagulase (Coa) and thermonuclease (Nuc) genes and Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (Sea) production among Staphylococcus aureus isolated from various sources in Shiraz. Moreover, the correlation between the Sea gene and coagulase and thermonuclease enzymes is also considered. A total of 100 S. aureus were isolated from various sources includ...
