OBJECTIVES To compare the performance of the automated Vitek 2 system, the disc diffusion method and a home-made mupirocin screen agar (MSA) to detect mupirocin resistance in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates. METHODS A total of 125 MRSA isolates were tested. The level of mupirocin resistance was determined by agar dilution and Etest techniques (gold standard), by th...
In the membrane method for measuring diffusion coefficients (Northrop and Anson (1928-29)) diffusion takes place through a porous disc. Under these conditions convection currents which usually make diffusion measurements difficult are avoided, the time required for a measurement is greatly shortened, and it becomes possible to remove the diffused substance for estimation. Under suitable conditi...
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the usefulness of cefoxitin when used as a surrogate marker for the detection of methicillin resistance. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eight hundred and seventy-one strains of Staphylococcus aureus, collected from eight tertiary referral centres serving diverse socio-economic populations, were included in the study using NCCLS disc diffusion and the agar dilution methods. RESU...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Reliable methods of detection of antimicrobial resistance are of paramount importance in the treatment and management of infections caused by Haemophilus influenzae. The objective of the present study was to compare and evaluate the performance of disc diffusion and E test (Epsilometer test) with agar dilution method for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of H. influen...
Methanolic extract of Trianthema decandra was investigated for its antibacterial activity against staphylococcus aureus (NCIM 2079), Escherichia coli (NCIM 2065), Bacillus subtilis (NCIM 2063), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (NICIM 2036) and Proteus vulgaris (NICIM 2027) at 100 μg/disc using disc diffusion method. The extract showed significant antibacterial activity and were comparable to Chlorampheni...
introduction: this study is aimed to compare phenotypic test methods and determine antibiotic susceptibility pattern of ampc beta-lactamase producing uropathogenic escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae in clinical isolates. method: e. coli and k. pneumoniae were identified by standard microbiological procedures. screening of ampc beta-lactamase production was done by using cefoxitin disc (...
OBJECTIVE To assess the frequency of phenotypic expression of inducible resistance of clindamycin due to expression of erm genes, in clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), by double disk diffusion test (D-test). METHOD This was a cross sectional study conducted in the clinical laboratory of Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi. A total of 2432, non duplicate clinical isolate...
The present study was conducted to evaluate the performance of cefoxitin disc diffusion method and oxacillin broth microdilution method for detection of methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA), taking presence of mecA gene as reference. In addition, inducible clindamycin resistance and beta-lactamase production were studied and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of vancomycin for S. aureus i...
Introduction: This study is aimed to compare phenotypic test methods and determine antibiotic susceptibility pattern of AmpC beta-lactamase producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in clinical isolates. Method: E. coli and K. pneumoniae were identified by standard microbiological procedures. Screening of AmpC beta-lactamase production was done by using cefoxitin disc (...
Background and Objective: Since the preparation of antibacterial materials in dentistry is very noticeable, therefore, we tried to evaluate this effect on Streptococcus mutans by addition of silica nanoparticles to LCGI (light curing glass ionomer). Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, we had five LCGI experimental groups that contained 0, 0.2, 0.5, 1, and 2% (w/w) of silica nanopa...
