140 Multi resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa outbreak caused by multiple sources and strains

Nosocomial outbreak caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing IMP-13 metallo-beta-lactamase.

An outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa showing a multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype (including carbapenems, ceftazidime, cefepime, gentamicin, tobramycin, and fluoroquinolones) was observed, during a 5-month period, in a general intensive care unit of a large tertiary care and clinical research hospital in southern Italy. The outbreak involved 15 patients, with a total of 87 isolates, mostly fr...

Multi-Drug Resistant Capability of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolates from Nasocomal and Non-Nasacomal Sources

P. aeruginosa were isolated from pus and urine sample of hospitalized patient and confirmed morphologically and biochemically. Two different pigment pyocycin (greenish colour) and pyoverdin (UV-fluorescing pigment) were analysed for photostability and its antibacterial activity. Two strains were sensitive to pyocin produced by urine isolate. Three strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated...

Dissemination of Class 1 Integron among Different Multidrug Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains

ABSTRACT             Background and objectives: The present study was conducted to detect class 1 integrons and evaluate antibiotic susceptibility patterns among clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa.             Methods: Sixty clinical samples from blood, tracheal wounds, burns and uri...

antimicrobial effect of cyperus rotundus on multiple drug resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa strains

background : medicinal use of plants dates long back in the history of the human beings and has recently gained a great deal of importance in treating different diseases. due to the importance of pseudomonas aeroginosa strains as agents responsible for common secondary infections and their resistance to antibiotics and disinfectants, the present study aimed at investigating the antimicrobial ef...
