conclusions our results showed that broad-spectrum antibiotics such as imipenem, meropenem, fosfomycin, cefoperazone/sulbactam, and vancomycin would be the first line and the most effective drugs for the empirical treatment of urinary tract pathogens due to their higher resistance rates against other drugs like cephalexin, cephradine, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, and norfloxacin. patients and m...

conclusions the results of this study indicated that more than 90% of e. coli isolates harbored the fimh gene. the high binding ability of fimh could result in the increased pathogenicity of e. coli; thus, fimh could be used as a possible diagnostic marker and/or vaccine candidate. materials and methods a total of 140 isolated e. coli strains from patients with uti were identified using biochem...

conclusions it can be concluded that the rsm is an effective method for the optimization of recombinant protein expression using synthetic genes in e. coli. results the proposed optimum fermentation condition consisted of 7.81 g l-1 glucose, od 600 nm prior induction 1.66 and induction temperature of 30.27°c. the model prediction of 0.267 g l-1 of rhifn-β and 0.961 g l-1 of acetate at the optim...

conclusions the results of the present study indicate that brazilian propolis demonstrated in vitro anti-microbial efficacy against s. mutans and c. albicans. results the antimicrobial efficacy of hexidine against s. mutans and e. coli was higher compared to that of c. albicans. the brazilian propolis (p) mr showed antimicrobial action against s. mutans and c. albicans. the antimicrobial effica...

b ackground: in recent decades, extended spectrum beta-lactamase (esbl) producing bacteria have increased worldwide. the most important causative agents of nosocomial infections throughout the world, escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae as main esbl-producing bacteria are so highly regarded. trends  in  the  treatment  of  infections  by such  bacteria  have  led  to  a  global concern. t...

background: introduction: enterotoxigenic escherichia coli (etec) is the most important bacterial cause of watery  travelers' diarrhea  in  developing countries. watery diarrhea is can cause serious life-threatening dehydration. etec was caused diarrhea by the secretion of two heat-labile enterotoxins (lts) and the heat-stable enterotoxins (sts) which increase intestinal secretion. routine labo...

the aim of this study was to isolate escherichia coli from chickens and to determine the presence of the eaea gene, a virulence factor detected in escherichia coli, in the isolates by polymerase chain reaction (pcr). different chicken organs (lung, liver and spleen) were inoculated onto blood agar and biochemical tests were performed on the suspicious isolates. escherichiacoliwas isolated from ...

waterborne outbreaks of pathogenic bacteria from contaminated water are serious threats forpublic health. coliform bacteria have been regarded as one of the most important indicators for monitoringpathogenic bacteria. to address potential pathogenic bacterial outbreaks, the distribution and diversity ofcoliform bacteria in jiahe river, which flows through densely-populated urban area in china, ...

the purpose of this work was to test the efficiency of the treatment of wastewater by infiltrationunder laboratory conditions, to remove bacterial and organic load and to convert it to available nutrient for crop plants. in order to achieve this objective, polyvinyl chloride (pvc) columns of 133 cm of height were used. the columns were filled with sand and/or pozzolana and loaded with municipal...

conclusions our data showed that, the high prevalence of beta-lactamase genes among isolates, and it. our findings may provide useful insights in replace of the appropriate antibiotics and it may also prevents of esbls, mediated resistance problem. results from 145 strains of e. coli, 51(35.2%) and 61(42.1%) isolates were resistance to ceftazidime and cefotaxime, respectively. esbl production w...
