The aim of this study was to investigate the pathogenic potential and antibiotic resistance 59 Escherichia coli isolates from ready-to-eat (RTE) street food (n = 31) drinking water 28) sold in city Maputo, Mozambique. were characterized by XbaI subtyping analysis via pulsed field gel electrophoresis. Multiplex PCRs performed targeting five virulence genes (stx, lt, st, astA, eae) three groups a...

The aim of the study was to determine the influence of the presence or the absence of antibiotic input on the emergence and maintenance of resistance in commensal bacteria from food producing animals. The research material constituted E. coli isolates from two animal species: swine at different age from one conventional pig farm with antibiotic input in young pigs and from beef and dairy cattle...

Antibiograms and relevant genotypes of Korean avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) isolates (n = 101) recovered between 1985 and 2005 were assessed via disc diffusion test, PCR, restriction enzyme analysis, and sequencing. These isolates were highly resistant to tetracycline (84.2%), streptomycin (84.2%), enrofloxacin (71.3%), and ampicillin (67.3%), and most of the tetracycline, streptomyc...

This study aims at molecular identification of Salmonella Infantis isolated from backyard chickens and the detection of their antibiotic resistance genes. A total of 46 Salmonella-suspected samples isolated from backyard chickens of northern Iran were collected. Serotyping was done by the traditional method and then confirmed by PCR. Antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates against 13 antim...

A total of 310 Salmonella isolates were isolated from 6 broiler farms in Eastern China, serotyped according to the Kauffmann-White classification. All isolates were examined for susceptibility to 17 commonly used antimicrobial agents, representative isolates were examined for resistance genes and class I integrons using PCR technology. Clonality was determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresi...

The aim of this study was to determine antibiotic resistance genes, phylogenetic groups and anti-microbial resistance patterns of Escherichia coli isolates from fecal samples of healthy pet cats in Kerman city. Ninety E. coli isolates were recovered from obtained rectal swabs. Antibiotic resistance pattern of the isolates against seven selected antibiotic was determined using disc diffusion met...

Copper-67 (67Cu) has ideal properties for radioimmunotherapy. The 62-h half-life is similar to the residence time of antibodies in tumor, and the therapeutic beta emission of 67Cu is comparable to that of 131I. 67Cu, however, has gamma emissions similar to 99mtechnetium that are favorable for imaging. The macrocyclic chelating agent 1,4,7,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-N,N',N'',N'''-tetraacetic ac...

This paper reports an investigation of the oxidation three epoxy-amine networks obtained from DGEBA cured with sorts aliphatic hardeners ethylene diamine (EDA), diethylene triamine (DETA), and triethylene tetraamine (TETA). Oxidation was monitored by FTIR innovative discussion CH2 consumption. Methylene groups held were shown to be more sensitive oxidation, which confirmed a Bond Dissociation E...

results the k. pneumonia isolates were resistant to erythromycin (70%), cefixime (53.3%), tetracycline (50%) and ceftazidime (36.6%). the amplification of teta and tetb genes of k. pneumonia revealed that all of the isolates harbored these genes. conclusions resistance to tetracycline and other antibiotics, and the presence of various resistance genes in k. pneumonia strains are alarming signs ...
