Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Resistance Pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Different Clinical Specimens: Survey ArticleHosniyeh E. Ladadweh, Hiba H. Falana, Jannat M. Ma’ali et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.A.) is a gram-negative, aerobic rod bacterium that mainly grows in soil and watery environments, infrequently being a part of microflora in healthy individuals. Since P.A. favors the growth in moistened areas, it can colonize in any simple aqueous solution, which in turn raises the risk of contamination and infection in hospital settings. The emergence of drug resistant … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2021 · 8,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultidrug Resistant Uropathogens among Egyptian Pregnant WomenWafaa Salah Metwally, Walid Mohamed ElnagarUrinary Tract Infections (UTIs) in pregnancy is a common medical problem associated with significant increase in the risk of fetal morbidity and mortality. The effective appropriate antimicrobial agent is a major concern as many effective antimicrobial groups cannot be used due to their potential toxicity to the fetus as well as the increasing rates of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) strain isolation. This … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 21 Dec 2019 · 7,487 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Apiary Management and Antimicrobial Compounds as Alternative Prevention or Treatment for Honeybee DiseasesChanpen Chanchao, Marko Stoić, Mikio Yoshiyama, Kiyoshi KimuraHoneybees are important in terms of pollinators and bee products. However, honeybee colonies keep declining due to colony collapse disorder, loss of food sources, environmental deterioration, pesticide exposure and various diseases, as well as the interaction of these causes. Pathogenic infections are high because there is an antagonistic coevolution between host and pathogen/parasite, which leads to a reciprocal adaptation, as … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2018 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Tradeoffs in Herbicide Resistant Brassica rapa: Effects on Pollen and Ovule Production, Biomass and DevelopmentRobin Bingham, Pamela King, Andrew G. KeckFor decades, herbicides have been used to control weeds and increase crop yields, a practice resulting in a growing number of weeds that are herbicide resistant. Like the problem of antibiotic resistance for medicine, herbicide resistant weeds present a significant agricultural challenge. To meet this challenge, we need management strategies informed by a more complete understanding of the biology of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2017 · 7,824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBacteria Contaminants and their Antibiotic Sensitivity from Selected Herbal Medicinal Products from Eldoret and Mombasa, KenyaLucia Keter, Richard Too, Nicholas Mwikwabe et al.Herbal products are used worldwide for the treatment and prevention of various diseases and currently represent a substantial proportion of the global drug market. However, these products have the potential of being contaminated by different microorganisms due to poor hygienic practices during handling, processing and packaging. The main aim of this study was to evaluate microbial quality of herbal products … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2016 · 17,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Antibiotic Sensitivity test of Salmonella Serovars from Enteric Fever Suspected Patients Visiting Alka Hospital, LalitpurKalpana Pandey, Vijay K. Sharma, Roshani MaharjanEnteric fever is still an important public health problem in developing countries including Nepal. A changing antibiotic susceptibility pattern of Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi A has increased to a great concern. To determine the prevalence and antibiotic sensitivity pattern of S. enteric serovars Typhi and Paratyphi from blood specimen in enteric fever suspected culture positive cases. A cross-sectional study … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Oct 2015 · 7,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency of Carbapenem Resistance among Gram Negative Pathogens in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Southern PakistanWaseela Ashraf, Altaf AhmedCarbapenems are considered the treatment of choice for treating the multi-drug resistance Gram negative bacteria. But resistance to these antibiotics has increased worldwide thus limiting therapeutic options for clinicians. To investigate the frequency and Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MICs) of carbapenem resistance in Gram negative organisms at a tertiary care hospital in Southern Pakistan. Seven Hundred and ninety-three carbapenem resistant isolates … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2015 · 7,573 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStaphylococcus aureus Prevalence and Antibiotic Susceptibility Profile in Anyigba, North-Central NigeriaCharles Kehinde Mofolorunsho, Monday Ocheni, Cornelius Arome Omatola, Ashem Godwin AgieniInfections with Staphylococcus aureus, a versatile human pathogen have continued to raise concerns particularly in hospital setting resulting in high rates of morbidity and mortality. For proper and adequate infection control and treatment in our environment, it has become necessary to determine the prevalence and antibiotic sensitivity profile of the organism. A total of 100 clinical specimens were collected from … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 29 Oct 2015 · 7,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Multi-Drug and Metal Resistant Aeromonas Species from Diverse SourcesRamasamy Amsaveni, Muthusamy Sureshkumar, Joseph Reshma Mary et al.The abuse of antibiotics in the modern era, lead the microorganisms to develop resistance. Antibiotic resistance becomes the part of natural selection in bacteria which allows them to survive in different environments. Bacteria like Aeromonas are able to adapt to changes in the environment such as an increase in antibiotic concentration, which often results in the development of mutations allowing … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2015 · 7,575 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Different Drugs in Down-Regulation of Efflux Pump Genes expression in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus StrainsManu Chaudhary, Santosh Kumar Patnaik, Anurag PayasiAntimicrobial resistance caused by efflux systems is not widely studied in Staphylococcus aureus. In the present study, prevalence of NorA and NorB efflux pumps was studied in thirteen Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains using a pair of primers with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
