Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) causes colibacillosis in poultry, a leading cause of poultry mortality worldwide. It is crucial to control APEC broiler breeders as it vertically transferred progeny via eggs. However, there only limited knowledge on the current population breeders. This study characterized 28 strains isolated from with colibacillosis. The genotypic-virulence characteris...

Broiler breeder farms could be a reservoir of Escherichia coli, disseminating antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors. We investigated the E. coli from nine broiler characterised their genes. A total 256 showed high level to tetracycline, nalidixic acid, ampicillin, cephalothin, followed by trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole chloramphenicol. The trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole, chloramphenicol ...

Introduction . Klebsiella pneumoniae in human microbiota may appear as a part of commensal microbiota, and hypervirulent pathogen, for example, hypermucoid pathotype. This pathotype is characterized by certain genetic determinants, leading to the possibility detecting pathogenic potential isolates PCR. Aim study : evaluate compare K. from practically healthy people, patients with inflammatory b...

BACKGROUND This study examines the dual role of Escherichia coli in the course of ulcerative colitis (UC). The intestinal microbiota is considered to play an important role in UC pathogenesis, but how E. coli contributes to inflammation in UC is still unknown. On the one hand, we demonstrated that there was a significant increase in the number of E. coli at the sites of inflammation in patients...

ST11 is a high-risk sequence type associated with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. Carbapenemase-producing hypervirulent K. (hvKp) are major concern as they harbour diverse range of pathogenicity traits. Here we describe the characteristics strain KP75w isolated from tertiary-care hospital in Pakistan. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby–Bauer disk dif...

Background Escherichia coli is among the most common uropathogens. Increased antibiotic resistance in Gram negative bacilli global concern. Alternative therapeutic options including vaccines against uropathogenic E. (UPEC) have been developed. In this study, we compared genotypic characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibility of UPEC according to phylogenetic groups. Methods We retrospectivel...
