Prevalence of Carbapenemases in Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is an important opportunistic pathogen and causes a variety of nosocominal infections especially in Intensive Care Units (ICU’s) (BergogneBerezin & Towner, 1996; Villegas & Harstein, 2003). These infections include bacteraemia, surgical-site infections, secondary meningitis, urinary tract infections and ventilator

The transmission of nosocomial pathogens in an intensive care unit: a space–time clustering and structural equation modelling approach [PDF]
We investigated the incidence of cases of nosocomial pathogens and risk factors in an intensive treatment unit ward to determine if the number of cases is dependent on location of patients and the colonization/infection history of the ward.

(E)‐N’‐benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐carbohydrazides with 2‐OH, 2,3‐diOH or 2,4‐diOH substitution exhibit good antimycobacterial or antiproliferative activity, and iron chelation similar to salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH). A series of 33 (E)‐N’‐benzylidenepyrazine‐2‐carbohydrazides and their derivatives were synthesized and tested for biological ...

Multidrug‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae poses a significant threat as a nosocomial pathogen, with no current licensed vaccines available. This study used a mutant E. coli strain expressing exogenous polysaccharides (from K. pneumoniae) to establish glycoengineered generalized modules for membrane antigens (geGMMA) vaccine platform, which demonstrated

ABSTRACT Bee pollen has been used as a medicine and food supplement. The biological activity and nutrient composition of bee pollen depend on its floral origin. Therefore, it was aimed to determine the phenolic and flavonoid content and antibacterial activities of methanolic (99.9%) extract of bee pollens among flora. Floral origin was identified using
