Incidence of Virulence Determinants and Antibiotic Resistance in Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from Iranian Traditional Fermented Camel Milk (Chal)
Lactic acid bacteria, including lactobacilli, enterococci, leuconostoc and weissella species isolated from Iranian traditional fermented camel milk (Chal) were assessed for the incidence of virulence determinants (gelE, efaAfm, efaAfs, ace, espfs, cylM, cylA and cylB), sensitivity to various antibiotics and virulence phenotypes. The incidence of virulence genes was determined by polymerase cha...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance of Shigella and Salmonella bacteria in children with acute diarrhea
Background: Diarrhea with salmonella and shigella infections is one of the main causes of mortality in children less than 5 years. Determining the antibiotic resistance of these bacteria is one of the most important methods in the treatment of diarrhea. This study was performed to evaluate antibiotic resistance of Salmonella and Shigella pathogenic bacteria in children with acute diarrhea refer...
متن کاملThe human gut resistome
In recent decades, the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens has become a major threat to public health. Bacteria can acquire antibiotic resistance genes by the mobilization and transfer of resistance genes from a donor strain. The human gut contains a densely populated microbial ecosystem, termed the gut microbiota, which offers ample opportunities for the hor...

Many classes of antibacterial drugs are currently available for physicians to use, however the plan of antibiotic development has slowed during the last decade. The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified antimicrobial resistance as one of the 3 most important problems for human health. Antimicrobial resistance is a growing problem worldwide, especially in hospitals, where resistant orga...
متن کاملThe Study of LasI and AlgD genes frequency and Multidrug Resistance (MDR) in Pseudomonads isolated from infectious samples of Fasa medical centers
Background and Objective: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important pathogenic bacteria causing infectious diseases that include resistance to many antibiotics. In addition, existence of LasIand AlgD gene contributes to pathogenicity of this bacterium. This study is aimed to investigate the frequency of mentioned genes, antibiotic resistance and a significant relationship between the...
