Anti-biofilm effect of peppermint extract on Pseudomonas aeruginosa that isolated of hospitalized patients in Tabriz city

Introduction Green biosynthesis of the metallic nanoparticles is considered as one of the effective method for cancer treatment with minimum side effects. The objective of this study was the evaluation of cytotoxicity of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles synthesized with Ceratonia siliqua extract on the breast cancer cells and assessment of anti-angiogenesis properties of these nanoparticles in t...

Synergistic Effect of Probiotic Bacteria and Antibiotics on Antibiotic-resistant Strains of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Patients with Burn Wounds

Background: Burn infections are one of the leading causes of death in the world. Antibiotic resistance is a major concern among the medical community. In this study, we investigated the effect of common probiotic strains on multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. Methods: Strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from burn wounds of patients were isolated. Then pathogens were biochemically ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in burn patients in Sulaimaniyah, Iraq: risk factors and antibiotic resistance rates.

Emergence of Ciprofloxacin Resistance Among Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Burn Patients

Background: Increasing resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ciprofloxacin in ICU/burn units has created a problem in the treatment of infections caused by this microorganism. Methods: Fifty P. aeruginosa strains were isolated from burn patients hospitalized in the Kerman Hospital during May 1999-April 2000 and were tested for in-vitro sensitivity to different antibiotics by disc diffusion br...

PLASMID MEDIATED METAL AND ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IN PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA STRAINS ISOLATED FROM BURN PATIENTS

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a leading cause of bum infections, and antibiotic- resistant strains of this bacterium are emerging due to extensive application of antibiotics in the bum unit of hospitals. In this study 50 strains of P. aeruginosa were isolated from bum patients infected with this micro-organism in the bum unit of a general hospital in Kerman, Iran over one year [May 1999-ApriI20...
