Towards an Ontological Representation of Resistance: The Case of MRSa [PDF]

, 2009
This paper addresses a family of issues surrounding the biological phenomenon of resistance and its representation in realist ontologies. Resistance terms from various existing ontologies are examined and found to be either overly narrow, inconsistent ...

Greater Resistance to Drought‐Induced Embolism Is Linked to Higher Yield Maintenance in Soybean

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought‐induced vascular damage on tree species is well‐documented, its

Antibiogram and detection of mecA gene among MRSA at Specialist Hospital Sokoto

Microbes and Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become more widespread all over the world and it is important to determine methicillin resistance genes in different regions. The major goals of this work were to identify the mec-A gene related with MRSA and to assess the antibiogram of clinical isolates of S. aureus.

Absence of the mecC gene in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from various clinical samples: The first multi-centered study in Turkey

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2019
Background: mecA is a predefined gene causing methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) isolates; however, it has been shown that some methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains do not carry this gene. Recently, in isolates found to

Antibiotic Susceptibility of Staphylococcus Aureus with VanA and MecA Genes

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council
Background: Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) is an emerging antibiotic resistant bacterium responsible for various infections in human. Resistance to methicillin and vancomycin are of prime concern in S. aureus. The study aims to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Vancomycin and evaluate the existence of mecA and vanA genes ...
