Background and Objective: Early diagnosis of Streptococcus agalactiae remains difficult, since symptoms are very nonspecific. Its frequency has not been completely investigated in urinary tract pathogen of pregnant ant and non pregnant women in Iran. The aim of this study was determining the frequency of Group B Streptococci in female patients. Materials and Methods: A Total of 11800 urine spec...

Antibiotic-resistant strains of Escherichia coli and, to a lesser extent, Klebsiella-Enterobacter were common in serial samples of the normal intestinal flora of healthy young adults in Thailand, and the resistance often was to multiple drugs and was transferable. Antibiotic administration promoted dominance of the flora by drug-resistant organisms regardless of the drug regimen and the predrug...

Background and Objectives: Urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common infectious diseases with different microbial agent and antimicrobial resistant pattern in hospitalized patients and outpatients. In order to assess the adequacy of therapy, knowledge of prevalence and resistance pattern of the bacteria is necessary. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and ...

Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common syndrom in community, especially in females. The object of this study is to determine the prevalence of most common Bacteria causing UTI and Antibiogram pattern respectively in Ahwas population. Materials & methods: In this retrospective descriptive study we gathered all urine culture results from lab centers. Results: From 48850 cases, ...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causing nosocomial infection posed a serious therapeutic challenge. We report the prevalence, antibiotic susceptibility pattern and MIC value of vancomycin of MRSA isolates from Doon valley hospitals, Uttarakhand. Clinical specimens were collected from different hospitals were subjected to MRSA screening using conventional microbiological metho...

OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of uro-pathogens. SETTING Department of Pathalogy, Ziauddin Medical Hospital Laboratory, Karachi. METHOD A retrospective analysis was done on all the urine samples sent for culture and sensitivity during a seven months period. Two thousand eight hundred and forty four urine samples were received and inoculated in cys...

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most commonly acquired bacterial infection. Antibiotic resistance of uropathogens has been known to increase worldwide and biofilm production being the prime cause. The objective of this study was to detect the production of biofilm by uropathogens isolated from UTIs and their antimicrobial susceptibility pattern. A total 570 urine samples from clinically su...

background: coagulase negative staphylococci (cons) are one of the most common bacteria found on human skin and on mucous membranes as a component of normal flora. the presence of cons in clinical specimens is frequently associated with an infectious aetiology or contamination. objectives: we aimed to evaluate cons species distribution and susceptibility patterns in specimens obtained from clin...
