Enterococci in Cheese – Phenotypization and Antibiotic Resistance
The material of investigation was consisted of samples of fresh and ripened cheeses made from raw and cooked milk subjected to rennet or acid coagulation. The primary isolation of enterococci was carried out on kanamycin-aesculine-azide agar at 37 °C and 42 °C during 24 hours. It was isolated totally 42 strains of enterococci. The examination of antibiotic resistance/sensitivity profiles was pe...
متن کاملStudy Of Antibiotic Resistance Pattern Of Enterococci
s: Background: Multidrug-resistant Enterococci are major problem and are increasingly reported worldwide. Enterococcal infections have been associated with higher hospitalization costs and a higher number of related deaths. Treatment of multidrug-resistant enterococci has become a challenge in hospitals around the world due to the lack of reliable therapeutic options. So the present study was u...
متن کاملPlasmid-mediated resistance to antibiotic synergism in enterococci.
Mating experiments have shown that high-level resistance (minimal inhibitory concentration greater than 2,000 microgram/ml) to streptomycin and kanamycin, and resistance to penicillin-streptomycin and penicillin-kanamycin synergism are transferable by conjugation from resistant clinical isolates of enterococci to a sensitive recipient strain. Cesium chloride-ethidium bromide ultracentrifugation...
متن کاملMechanism of resistance to antibiotic synergism in enterococci.
Enterococci exhibit two types of resistance to streptomycin. Moderately high-level resistance is observed in most naturally occurring strains and can be overcome by simultaneous exposure to penicillin. In addition, very high-level resistance is found in those strains against which penicillin plus streptomycin fail to produce synergism in vitro. To study the mechanism of streptomycin resistance ...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance Patterns and Resistance Genes in Enterococci Isolated from Sheep Gastrointestinal Tract in Slovakia
Three hundred Enterococcus isolates from the rumen and faeces of three sheep were analysed for antibiotic resistance. Resistance to tetracycline, kanamycin, and streptomycin was predominant, followed by erythromycin resistance. About 7% of the isolates were resistant to ampicillin and vancomycin only. All tested isolates were susceptible to chloramphenicol. The presence of selected antibiotic r...
