conclusions more than behalf of the wound isolates were esbl positive, and the presence of blaveb-1 was determined in less than half of these isolates. fortunately, resistance to imipenem and meropenem was low. results the majority of the wound isolates were resistant to augmentin (90%, n = 80) and cefpodoxime (87.6%, n = 78). however, the majority was susceptible to imipenem and meropenem. fif...

objective(s): p-glycoprotein (p-gp) is an efflux protein, the overexpression of which has been associated with multidrug resistance in various cancers. although sirna delivery to reverse p-gp expression may be promising for sensitizing of tumor cells to cytotoxic drugs, the therapeutic use of sirna requires effective carriers that can deliver sirna intracellularly with minimal toxicity on targe...

conclusions antibiotic resistance gene cassettes may be carried on integron or other genetic elements. the purpose of this study was to detect integron or genomic islands involved in antibiotic resistance profile of the isolates of h. influenzae collected in this study. results of the twenty isolates, all (100%) were resistant to clindamycin, chloramphenicol and tetracycline, 95% to amoxicillin...

OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to determine antimicrobial susceptibility and to characterize the molecular mechanisms of multidrug resistance among German food-borne Salmonella isolates of different serovars. METHODS A total of 319 epidemiologically independent multidrug-resistant isolates from German foodstuffs comprising 25 different serovars were tested for their antimicrobia...

Salmonella is one of the most important zoonotic pathogens with many virulence factors playing a major role in its pathogenesis. The aims of this study were to detect spvA, int2 and invC virulence genes of different Salmonella serotypes isolated from various clinical animal and human sources, and to investigate antibiotic resistance patterns among these serotypes. Using a PCR assay, a total of ...

background: integrons are the major reasons of multidrug resistance (mdr) among enteropathogenic bacteria. occurrence of horizontal gene transfer between integron-carrying microorganisms and other enteric bacteria may increase the rate of emergence of integron-associated antibiotic resistance. objectives: the objective of this study was to investigate class 1 integrons among members of enteropa...
