AmpC is a class C Ambler β-lactamase that confers resistance to cephamycins. Globally reported AmpC-producing Enterobacterales are clinically important due their therapeutic restrictions and epidemiology. Between April 2021 May 2021, an outbreak of beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli occurred at Showa University Hospital. Because this outbreak, plasmid typing, enterobacterial repetitive i...

Anaplasma marginale genomic DNA was tested for the presence of repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP) and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC)-like sequences in order to evaluate the genetic diversity of multiple A. marginale isolates. A. marginale isolates were obtained from cattle of six different states of Brazil, from the US and an Anaplasma centrale strain was obtained f...

Klebsiella pneumonia infection rates have increased dramatically. Molecular typing and virulence analysis are powerful tools that can shed light on Klebsiella pneumonia infections. Whereas 77.7% (28/36) of clinical isolates indicated multidrug resistant (MDR) patterns, 50% (18/36) indicated carpabenem resistance. Gene prevalence for the AcrAB efflux pump (82.14%) was more than that of the mdtK ...

PCR has been used to analyze the distribution of REP (Repetitive Extragenic Palindromic) and ERIC (Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus) sequences (rep-PCR) found within the genome of the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis, with the purpose to analyze the genetic similarities among 56 subspecies samples and 95 field isolates. The PCR products were analyzed by EB-AGE (ethidium bromide-a...

This study aimed to characterize Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates in 2 intensive care units in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. P. aeruginosa isolates from patients' and staff hands and environmental samples were typed using antibiotyping and ERIC-PCR. In Egypt, isolates from suction apparatus tubing and drainage containers (A7) and AV tubing (A8) were linked to those from patients who had these antibiot...

Monitoring the emergence and transmission of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is important for infection control in CF centers internationally. A recently developed multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme is used for epidemiologic analyses of P. aeruginosa outbreaks; however, little is known about its suitability for isolates from CF patients compared with tha...

Twenty-six root nodule bacteria from two native forage legumes namely Sulla aculeolata subsp. and mauritanica were isolated analyzed using a polyphasic approach comprising phenotypic traits, ERIC-PCR, 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This is the first time study has been performed to determine diversity of associated with spp. Phenotypically, all isolates identified as fast-growing shows high toleranc...

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is receiving a great deal of attention due to its unique properties such as high purity, water retention capacity, mechanical strength, and biocompatibility. However, the production BC has been limited because associated costs low productivity. In light this, isolation new producing bacteria selection highly productive strains become prominent issue. Kombucha tea fermen...
