This study aimed to identify Staphylococcus sp. and antibiotic resistance in Tutur District, Pasuruan. A total of 273 samples cow's milk were evaluated identified as Furthermore, the test was carried out according CLSI standards. showed 41 isolates 97 positive CMT. The results reported seven resistant antibiotics consisted one multidrug-resistant isolate, i.e. S. saprophyticus which penicillin,...

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...

Present study investigated the antibiotic resistance profile of bacterial strains isolated from soil, sediment and waters of Eloor-Edayar Industrial belt of Kerala, South India. A total of 165 bacterial strains were isolated and tested for their sensitivity to 11 common antibiotics (Ampicillin, Erythromycin, Gentamycin, Nalidixic acid, Penicillin, Vancomycin, Novobiocin, Amikacin, Kanamycin, St...

Background and Objective. Antimicrobial resistance is now a major challenge to clinicians for treating patients. Hence, this short term study was undertaken to detect the incidence of multidrug-resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and pandrug-resistant (PDR) bacterial isolates in a tertiary care hospital. Material and Methods. The clinical samples were cultured and bacterial strai...

Objective: In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in using herbal products to overcome bacterial resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lemon verbena aqueous extract, verbascoside and caffeine in combination with gentamicin against standard and clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli strains. Materials and Methods: The MIC and ...

PURPOSE Bacterial infections induce a series of inflammatory responses and lead to longer hospital stays and increased mortality. In clinical work, we often find that infections caused by drug-susceptible isolates have a worse outcome than those caused by pandrug-resistant isolates. To goal of this study was to assess the impact of drug resistant in a rabbit model of Klebsiella pneumoniae infec...

This study was aimed to observe the susceptibility pattern of bacterial isolates from respiratory tract infection (RTI). The study was carried out between June, 2012 and December, 2012. Sputum and throat swab specimens were collected aseptically from patients and cultured on the appropriate bacteriological media. Bacterial isolates were identified by biochemical tests and antimicrobial suscepti...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is a rapid worldwide emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens, especially in nosocomial isolates. This study compared the in vitro activities of levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, cefepime, imipenem, and piperacillin-tazobactam against 208 aerobic bacterial pathogens that caused 197 nosocomial infections in 184 patients. METHODS Antimicrobial susceptibili...

Tigecycline is a new glycylcycline antibiotic structurally similar to minocycline antibiotic. It has broad spectrum activity, including Staphylococcus aureus infections. This is the first study that evaluated the activity of Tigecycline against Staphylococcus aureus isolated from biological samples in Iran. In vitro activity of tigecycline against 160 Staphylococcus aureus including 99 methicil...
