Serology based immunological crossreactivity among various isolates of streptococcus agalactiae from mastitic buffaloes

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
To measure the degree of immunological cross-reactivity among different isolates of Streptococcus agalactiae from mastitic cases of buffaloes and cows in four districts (Faisalabad, Jhang, Toba Tek Singh and Sargodha), two tests were used.

Perinatal Streptococcus agalactiae Epidemiology and Surveillance Targets

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2018
Streptococcus agalactiae, or group B streptococcus (GBS), is a major neonatal pathogen. Recent data have elucidated the global prevalence of maternal and neonatal colonization, but gaps still remain in the epidemiology of this species.

Bacteriuria profile and antimicrobial sensitivity among pregnant women attending antenatal care at Jazan and Sabyia general hospitals, Jazan Region, KSA: A cross‐sectional study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacteria in urine, which is known as bacteriuria, is divided clinically into two types: symptomatic, where the patient experiences urinary complaints, and asymptomatic (ASB), in which the patient has no complaints. Pregnant women who have ASB may later develop symptomatic urinary tract infection, which is considered one of the most ...

Streptococcus agalactiae Sequence Type 283 in Farmed Fish, Brazil

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
In 2016 and 2017, we characterized outbreaks caused by Streptococcus agalactiae serotype III sequence type (ST) 283 in Nile tilapia farms in Brazil. Whole-genome multilocus sequence typing clustered the fish isolates together with the zoonotic ST283 and ...

Exploring the antimicrobial activity of fermented and non‐fermented cocoa bean shell extracts through metabolomics analysis and synergistic studies

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Cocoa bean shell (CBS) extracts have emerged as a promising source of antimicrobial compounds. However, the bioactive compounds responsible for their antimicrobial activity have not been studied sufficiently. This study analyzed the antimicrobial properties of 12 extracts from fermented and non‐fermented CBS, employing solvent and ...

Pharmacokinetics of Intrapartum Benzylpenicillin: Insights Into Candidate Regimens to Prevent Early Onset Neonatal Group B Streptococcus Disease

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Early onset neonatal Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infection accounts for significant global morbidity and mortality. Intrapartum prophylaxis with benzylpenicillin is advised for women at high risk of having a baby affected by early onset GBS disease. Pregnancy‐related physiological changes can alter pharmacokinetics. To estimate the intrapartum

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.
