Multidrug-resistant profile and prevalence of extended spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenemase production in fermentative Gram-negative bacilli recovered from patients and specimens referred to National Reference Laboratory, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

PLoS ONE, 2019
Background The emergence of multidrug-resistance (MDR), production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases, and carbapenemase in members of fermentative gram-negative bacilli are a serious threat to public health.

Detection of American Foulbrood in a Bee Family from Timiş County

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
It seems that after information media lately have been detected more cases of American foulbrood in our country, but this is not yet known by the beekeepers. In November 2013 a beekeeper brought laboratory six dead bees and portions of honeycomb, because

Reduced rate of intensive care unit acquired gram-negative bacilli after removal of sinks and introduction of ‘water-free’ patient care

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2017
BackgroundSinks in patient rooms are associated with hospital-acquired infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of removal of sinks from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patient rooms and the introduction of ‘water-free’ patient care on ...

Does discovery of differentially culturable M tuberculosis really demand a new treatment paradigm? Longitudinal analysis of DNA clearance from sputum

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background According to the traditional tuberculosis (TB) treatment paradigm, the initial doses of treatment rapidly kill most Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) bacilli in sputum, yet many more months of daily treatment are required to eliminate a small ...

Secretome of Intestinal Bacilli: A Natural Guard against Pathologies

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Current studies of human gut microbiome usually do not consider the special functional role of transient microbiota, although some of its members remain in the host for a long time and produce broad spectrum of biologically active substances.

Combating virulence of Gram-negative bacilli by OmpA inhibition

Scientific Reports, 2017
Preventing the adhesion of pathogens to host cells provides an innovative approach to tackling multidrug-resistant bacteria. In this regard, the identification of outer membrane protein A (OmpA) as a key bacterial virulence factor has been a major ...

Comparison of testing methods assessing the in vitro efficacy of the combination of aztreonam with avibactam on multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials
Background Aztreonam-avibactam (ATM-AVI) combination shows promising effectiveness on most carbapenemase-producing Gram-negatives, yet standardized antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods for evaluating the combination in clinical laboratories is
