متن کاملEvaluation of commercially available antisera for serotyping of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Commercially available O antisera have been compared with a standard pyocine typing method in the investigation of 156 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A third of the strains belonged to serotypes 3 or 6 and 42.3% to pyocine type 1. Good differentiation of strains belonging to the predominant serotypes was achieved by pyocine typing. Although routine use of both methods provides a more comple...
متن کاملThe Determination of Metallo-Beta-Lactamase Enzymes Prevalence in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa using Etest and their Antibiogram Patterns in Kermanshah, Iran
Background & Aims: One of the main causes of nosocomial infection is pseudomonas aeruginosa and carbapenems is one of the most important classes of antibiotics used in the treatment of infections caused by this bacteria. Metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) production is one of the most important mechanisms of resistance to carbapenems and their increased prevalence is a serious threat to treatment of ...
متن کاملEpidemiological analysis of carbapenem-sensitive and -resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa with decreased levels of meropenem susceptibility were identified in the Royal Infirmary Edinburgh in 2002. Within the affected group of patients, none had meropenem-resistant P. aeruginosa when they arrived in the intensive care unit (ICU). Seven isolates from the ICU were collected five months after the decreased susceptibility to meropenem was identified. In order to i...
