Abstract:

Since the 1970s, relatively uncommon species of non-enteric gram-negative bacilli have emerged as nosocomial colonizers and pathogens. Among them, one of the most significant genera is Acinetobacter, which has given rise to an increasing number of reports of nosocomial infections. The introduction of new broad-spectrum antimicrobials in the hospitals has been one of the main factors responsible for this development.In addition leading to a move from more susceptible towards more resistant pathogens. This occurred both between and within genera. Owing to the unpredictable antimicrobial suscepti

Abstract:

A breach of the skin barrier, due to a burn wound, facilitates colonization by various microorganisms. Burn wounds can become colonized from the patients’ own skin flora, respiratory tract, or with exogenous bacteria from the environment. Strategies to treat burn wound infections are multipronged: removal of the infected necrotic tissue, wound dressing to protect the damaged area, and treatment with specific antimicrobials to prevent reinfection. The development of chronic infections, which could potentially lead to sepsis, depends largely on how well the microorganisms form biofilms within th

Rapid and reliable antimicrobial susceptibility testing plays a vital role in deciding the appropriate antibiotic therapy prescribed. Current techniques employed by clinical laboratories include breakpoint tests and microdilution assays which typically provide susceptibility data after 18 to 24 hours. The primary aim of this study was to develop a reliable antimicrobial susceptibility test, using a tetrazolium-based salt as a colorimetric indicator ofbacterial metabolism, which could provide accurate susceptibility data within 4 to 5 hours.

Abstract:

Infectious diseases resulting from bacterial pathogens are the most common causes of patient morbidity and mortality worldwide. The rapid identification of the pathogens and their antibiotic resistances is crucial for proper clinical management. However, the standard culture-based diagnostic approach requires a minimum of two days from the initial specimen collection to result reporting. As a consequence, broad-spectrum antibiotics are often prescribed under the worst-case assumption without knowledge of the pathogens or their resistances. The current clinical practice results in improper trea

Abstract:

The prevention of healthcare‐associated infections (HCAIs) is a major challenge currently being faced by hospitals in both the UK and worldwide. The hospital environment acts as a reservoir for nosocomial organisms contributing towards the transmission of bacteria and thus the colonisation and infection rates of the patient population. Therefore, it is desirable to implement measures to decrease the microbial load within the hospital environment as a whole and particularly on frequently touched surfaces. Antimicrobial coatings could be applied to these surfaces, and used as an adjunct to other

The seed germination process during sprout production provides suitable environmental conditions for the growth of pathogenic bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes.

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the leading causes of hospital acquired infections. The ability of S. aureus to acquire resistance to a diverse range of antimicrobial compounds, results in limited treatment options, particularly in methicillin-resistant S. aureus. A mechanism by which S. aureus develops reduced susceptibility to antimicrobials is through the formation of small colony variants (SCVs). Reduced antimicrobial susceptibility in S. aureus SCVs is not related to ‘classical’ mechanisms of resistance, but occurs as a direct result of the development of the SCV phenotype. S. aureus SCVs

Abstract:

This study was designed to investigate Plantago major leaves, which is widely used in ethnobotanical uses in Turkey as is the case in all over the world, for their antioxidant capacities and antimicrobial effect on two gram-positive and two gramnegative bacteria. Extracts of P. major leaves prepared in the methanol and fraction samples were collected in solvents in increasing polarity, from non-polar to polar, to separate bioactive compound in crude extract. Antioxidant capacities of the crude extracts and fractions were examined by radical scavenging methods, namely 2,2-azinobis(3- ethylbenzo
