BACKGROUND Bloodstream infection (BSI) is one of the most common causes of nosocomial infection in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). The aim of the present study was to determine bacterial agents and their susceptibility patterns to antibiotics and to investigate the risk factors associated with BSI. METHODS This was a nested case-control study carried out from September 2009 to June 2010...

urinary tract infection (uti) is considered as one of the important bacterial infections seen among renal transplant recipients. in the present study, bacterial urinary tract infections in renal transplant recipients were investigated. eighty-seven renal transplant recipients (57 males and 30 females) were included to study the bacterial utis. clean- catch midstream urine specimens were obtaine...

risk of microbial contamination in the cosmetic products and transmission to consumers especially in smuggled preparations is very high. according in this study, the microbial content and pollution some of the sunscreen creams in the market and one sample in official market as witness were evaluated. the microbial content (bacterial total count, fungal count, and presence of pseudomon asaerogin...

The evaluation of selected public swimming pools within Sango-Ota metropolis was done to determine whether the adapt recommended WHO standard for pool water. Six were based on average population per use and user ratings. A total 12 water samples analysed physicochemical microbial qualities using methods. characterization results are as follows; pH, 5.00 - 5.73 with mean value 5.3; Total Dissolv...

BACKGROUND Bacterial pathogens isolated from dacryocystitis patients are diverse and complex in terms of their distribution, prevalence, and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern. The clinical importance of microbial causes of dacryocystitis and pattern of drug resistance has not been reported in northwest Ethiopia. Moreover, the management of dacryocystitis is based on only clinical observation...

Introduction: Urinary tract infection is a common bacterial infection in childhood . Approximately 3-5% of girls and 1% of boys acquire a urinary tract infection (UTI). The management of UTI is complicated by the increasing prevalence of antibiotic- resistant strains and over the - counter antibiotics empiric therapy with antibiotics such as ampicillin , amoxicillin and cotrimoxazo...

conclusions the ppi-g2 dendrimer with end amine groups exhibited a positive impact on the removal of dominant bacterial isolated strains. therefore, it is possible to use these nanodendrimers as a safe and effective material for water disinfection in the future. results the most important isolated bacteria were escherichia coli 37 (48.7%), klebsiella oxytoca 12 (15.8%), proteus mirabilis 3 (4%)...
