Abstract:
The main goal of the study was to analyse the occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains in poultry in the Czech Republic in 1999–2000. The resistance was determined in 128 selected Escherichia coli, 88 Staphylococcus sp. and 228 Enterococcus sp. strains. The bacterial species were selected to represent gramnegatives and grampositives, the common part of intestinal microflora and also opportunistic pathogens. In Escherichia coli, 97% of strains were found to be resistant to tetracycline, 51% were resistant to ampicillin, and 31% were resistant to piperacillin. Increased fre

Over the last decades antibiotic resistance has evolved and spread in many different bacterial species. From an evolutionary perspective, drug resistance is an adaptation to a new environment. Population genetic theory predicts that recent adaptations are associated with reduced diversity in the part of the population that carries the adaptive trait, due to a process known as selective sweeps. It is not known if this prediction holds for antibiotic resistance in bacterial species that infect humans.

Background: CTX-M betalactamases have shown a rapid spread in the recent years among Enterobacteriaceae and have become the most prevalent Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) in many parts of the world. The introduction and dissemination of antibiotic-resistant genes limits options for treatment, increases mortality and morbidity in patients, and leads to longer hospitalization and expensive costs. We aimed to identify the beta-lactamases circulating encoded by the genes blaCTX-M-15, blaSHV-1 and blaTEM-1 in Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) strains. Fu

Abstract:
Abstract Urinary tractinfections (UTIs) are commonly acquired bacterial infections that cause significant morbidity, worsened by the rise of antimicrobial resistance among uropathogenic bacteria. Understanding the dynamics of bacterial UTIs is essential to the proper use of antimicrobial therapies in patient treatment. In this study, Electric Cell-Substrate Impedance Sensing (ECIS) technology was used to monitor bacterial-mediated cytotoxicity in-vitro enabling evaluation of antibiotics. Using the ECIS system, real-time changes of barrier function were recorded for human bladder epithelial cel

We determined the antibiotic resistance of enterococci, coagulase negative staphylococci, and Staphylococcus aureus isolated from chicken meat samples. The antibiotic resistance of the isolated strains was estimated by the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method (according to the NCCLS document M2-A9 suggestions). It was found that all strains of Enterococcus spp. were resistant to tetracycline, 75% of them were resistant to ciprofloxacin, and 50% of them were resistant to erythromycin, vancomycin, and chloramphenicol. Also all strains of S. aureus were resistant to tetracycline and 25% of S. aureus

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasingly common and threaten human health. Recently, antibiotic resistance in food associated bacteria become an emerging threat to this state. These bacteria may act as reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes and transfer to commensal or pathogenic bacteria in the human intestines. Therefore, either probiotics or starter cultures have to be evaluated for antibiotic interaction. In this study, the antibiotic susceptibility of seven Lactobacillus strains was determined.

When tested for multiple drug resistance, some were found to be resistant to more than one antibiotic. In competition studies, rhizobia resistant to streptomycin were found to be more competitive than antibioticsensitive strains, while those resistant to penicillin could not compete even with antibiotic-sensitive strains.
