Abstract:
Conventional antimicrobial susceptibility tests, including phenotypic and genotypic methods, are insufficiently accurate and frequently fail to identify effective antibiotics. These methods predominantly select therapies based on the antibiotic response of only the lead bacterial pathogen within pure bacterial culture. However, this neglects the fact that, in the majority of human infections, the lead bacterial pathogens are present as a part of multispecies communities that modulate the response of these lead pathogens to antibiotics and that multiple pathogens can contribute to the infection

SUMMARY Susceptibility tests were performed on milk samples representing prevalent mastitis infections in certain herds. Susceptibility patterns of the same bacterial species from several mastitis infections in the same herd were consistent. The herd antibiotic susceptibility profiles were used as a basis for selecting antibiotics for treatment of all such mastitis cases in that herd. A high degree of correlation was seen between the susceptibility test results and treatment results. Susceptibility patterns of the same bacterial species from mastitis infections in different herds varied greatl

Abstract:
Excessive and sometimes inappropriate use of antibiotics leads to the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains. Antibiotic-resistant pathogens are a major public health problem in routine clinical practice and have severe economic consequences due to increased treatment costs. Timely testing of antimicrobial susceptibility for bacterial infections ensures accurate prescribing, reduces treatment time, and helps minimize the spread of antibiotic-resistant infections. The main problem with antibiotic susceptibility testing is that there are not enough fast diagnostic tests to allow appropri

Abstract—This study was aimed to examined 59 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus (isolated previously from milk of ewes with mastitis, diagnosed by bacteriological methods and PCR confirmation by using 23SrRNA) for detection of slime producing (as virulence factor) by culturing on modified Congo red agar, antimicrobial susceptibility test to 11 antibiotics and Molecular assay with phylogenetic analysis of antibiotic resistance gene (blaZ) by Conventional PCR technique. The results revealed that all S. aureus isolates were slime producers and showed varying degrees of susceptibility patterns to a

Abstract:
Objective: The infection of respiratory tract pathogens may extend the inpatient days of hospitalized patients. However, the excessive usage of antibiotics leads to pathogens which acquired resistance. Hence, the quick and precision detection of the types and antibiotic sensitivity of causative agents for hospitalized patients is essential. Nowadays, the diagnostic approaches include standard culture, molecular typing and antigen detection. However, the current analytics is limited by low sensitivity and long turnaround times. In this study, we utilized the BioFire FilmArray pneumonia panel (P

Abstract:
The dissemination of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) bacteria has been associated with the inappropriate use of antibiotics in both humans and animals and with the consumption of food contaminated with resistant bacteria. In particular, the use of antibiotics as prophylactic and growth promotion purposes in food-producing animals has rendered many of the antibiotics ineffective. The increased global prevalence of AMR poses a significant threat to the safety of the world’s food supply. Objectives: This study aims at determining the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) is

Abstract:
The rhizosphere soil of medicinal plants is rich in microorganisms that develop antibiotics as natural mechanism of protection against other microbes that live in their vicinity. The present study aims to explore the production of antibacterial agents from rhizosphere soil bacteria of 11 medicinal plants and determine their activity against Gram-negative (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria. Soil samples were collected and used to isolate antibiotic producing bacteria (APB). Those isolates (108) were first tested using C

Abstract:
Introduction: Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is the contributing agent behind the avian infectious disease colibacillosis, which causes substantial fatalities in poultry industries that significantly impact the economy and food safety. Several virulence genes have been shown to be concomitant with the extra-intestinal survival of APEC. This study investigates the antibiotic resistance patterns and APEC‐associated virulence genes content in Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolated from non‐healthy and healthy broiler chickens from a commercial poultry farm in Qatar.

Objectives: This study aims to characterize at the molecular level the genes encoding resistance in Salmonella and explain the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to ceftriaxone, cefepime, amoxicillin-clavulanate, tetracycline, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, chloramphenicol, colistin and azithromycin in Salmonella. It aims as well to characterize the 16S rRNA gene region by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) to investigate if this region constitutes an appropriate ‘coincidental’ marker to distinguish important pathogenic Salmonella species. Finally, determine the lineages o
