The bacterial flora from leishmanial ulcers was studied. The aerobic species Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were found most frequently. Evaluation of the sensitivity of these species to antibiotics showed that 100% of these isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to vancomycin, amikacin and chloramphenicol, while 100% of the isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were sen...

BACKGROUND Although Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most common bacterial infection in adults with cystic fibrosis and frequently develops resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics, it has not been determined whether patients with multiple antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa have worse clinical outcomes than patients with more susceptible strains. OBJECTIVES This study assessed the ...

We report the annotated genome sequence of multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain NCGM1179, which is highly resistant to carbapenems, aminoglycosides, and fluoroquinolones and is emerging at medical facilities in Japan.

BACKGROUND Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important nosocomial pathogen that exhibits multiple drug resistance with increasing frequency, especially to carbapenems making patient treatment difficult. Carbapenem-resistance may be caused by porin gene mutations, active drug efflux, and carbapenemase production. This study evaluated the incidence of genes responsible for carbapenemase production in ...

abstract aims: the increasing usage of antibiotics can cause resistance to the treatment of infections, which can caused by bacteria, e.g. pseudomonas aeruginosa. the aim of this study was to trace the class i, ii and iii integrons in isolates of p. aeruginosa of nosocomial infection and determining the antibiotic resistance pattern of the bacteria. instrument & methods: in this cross-sectional...

background  and  objectives: pseudomonas  aeruginosa is responsible for devastating nosocomial infections among severely burn patients. class c of cephalosporinase (ampc-β-lactamases) is important cause of multiple β-lactam resistance in p. aeruginosa . the aim of this study was to detect the ampc-β-lactamases producing isolates among carbapenem resistant p.  aeruginosa isolated from burn patie...

conclusions the results suggest that fge can improve the antibiotic sensitivity of these pathogens to some antibiotics. results fresh garlic extract displayed evident inhibition properties against c. albicans and mrsa, yet weak inhibition properties against p. aeruginosa. additionally, fge showed the potential to improve the effect of antibiotics on antibiotic resistant pathogens. the synergism...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the major pathogens causing hospital-acquired infections. It can easily develop antibiotic resistance through chromosomal mutations or by horizontal acquisition of resistant determinants. The increasing prevalence of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) or extensively-drug-resistant (XDR) P. aeruginosa isolates is associated with the dissemination of the so-called high-ri...

Objective: To identify the frequency of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its sensitivity to various antibiotics in patients of chronic suppurative otitis media. Material and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted at the Department of ENT, DHQ Teaching Hospital, Dera Ismail Khan from January 2011 to October 2011. Patients with unilateral or bilateral active chronic suppurative otitis media atte...
