Abstract:
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) manifests antibiotic resistance, especially for the β-lactams antibiotic group. MRSA bacteria are a common cause of infection in humans. The antibiotic resistance characteristic comes from the mecA, mecB, and mecC genes in the bacterial chromosome. mecA is the most common gene found in MRSA. Therefore, it is essential to know the role of the mecA gene in antibiotic resistance. This paper searched the literature about MRSA bacteria, the mec gene, and their relationship to cause resistance. The results showed that the mec gene found in MRSA bact

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The transcription of mecA, the gene required for oxacillin resistance in staphylococci, was quantified in a collection of 65 geographically and genetically diverse clinical and 8 defined laboratory Staphylococcus aureus isolates. mecA transcription was measured by real-time reverse transcription-PCR, confirmed by Northern blot analysis, and correlated with the presence and DNA sequence of the two mecA repressors, mecI and blaI. Isolates were first examined that contained mecI and/or blaI with wild-type sequence. BlaI provided significantly more repression of mecA transcription than di

ABSTRACT A homolog of the Staphylococcus aureus methicillin resistance gene mecA was recently shown to be ubiquitous in independent isolates of the animal species Staphylococcus sciuri. The mecA gene homolog and regions flanking it were cloned and sequenced from four strains of S. sciuri: strain K1 (ATCC 29062), a representative of S. sciurisubsp. sciuri; two strains (K3 and K8) representingS. sciuri subsp. rodentius; and strain K11, a representative of S. sciuri subsp. carnaticum.

The mechanism of methicillin susceptibility was studied in Staphylococcus aureus N315P, a pre-methicillin-resistant S. aureus strain that is susceptible to methicillin, despite the presence of mecA in the chromosome. In the presence of mec regulator genes mecI and mecR1, transcription of the mecA gene was not inducible by the addition of methicillin to the culture medium. Inactivation of the mecI gene function by replacing it with tetL made N315P express heterogeneous-type methicillin resistance. The subclone, in which the mecI gene was replaced, subclone P delta I, produced 12 times greater a

Of the 18 mutation types identified, 16 had not been described previously.

The gene encoding PBP2a, mecA, is transcriptionally regulated in some clinical isolates bymecR1 and mecI, genes divergently transcribed from mecA that encode a signal transducer and repressor, respectively. The biochemical basis of MecI-mediatedmecA transcriptional repression was investigated by using purified MecI.

Based on Ian Steedman's seminal contribution "Consumption Takes Time", we propose a formal activity-based model for consumer behaviour. The model simultaneously incorporates choices over consumption time, as well as quantities and qualities of products consumed. We identify and examine preconditions for satiation with products and draw implications for economic policy. Satiation with products explains the limited effects of price or income changes on demand and questions the pertinence of economic growth for development.

Os MRSA são resistentes a praticamente todos os antibióticos β-lactâmicos devido a dois mecanismos principais: produção de β-lactamase (bla), codificada pelo gene blaZ, e produção de uma proteína de ligação à penicilina (PBP2a, do inglês “penicillin binding protein 2”), codificada pelo gene mecA.

Abstract:
Abstract Deteriorated pipelines are one of the major causes of leaks and accidents in oil and gas production and transportation facilities. Assuming safety and reliability of the pipeline demands an efficient pipeline integrity management. A successful process of pipeline integrity management incorporates aspects of risk assessment (threat consequence, critical consequence area (CCA)), and their control through corrosion management. The objective should be achieved in the most cost-effective manner by designing for mitigation of corrosion, monitoring, inspection and risk-based inspection activ

Abstract Predictive Corrosion Management have a lot of attractive use cases including Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) enabled by monitoring and Artificial Intelligence (AI). This paper describes the deployment and evaluation of remote monitoring solution with application in corrosion under insulation management especially for cold duty insulation with intermittent service. A remote Monitoring system using Electro-Magnetic Guided Radar (EMGR) is described in this paper that uses advanced analytics for predictions. This technology involves use of sensors embedded in the insulation and a data lo

Abstract Over the last 30 years high performance advanced FRP composites, originally introduced in aerospace, have become widespread in the marine and alternative energy industries, and are now becoming increasingly used in civil and architectural projects. The use of composite materials in new fields still represents a challenge due to the higher percentage of defects in final manufactured composite parts. This requires a closer look of the mechanical properties of the composite materials considered to ensure safety requirements and overall structural integrity is achieved. A variety of advan

Abstract:
Abstract Pipeline integrity assessments in upstream pipelines is a challenging activity that requires considerable amount of data and its proper interpretation. An important factor, usually ignored during the data collection process, is a data integration and data correlation analysis. This process becomes of high importance when trying to collect meaningful and representative pipeline information. The Success criteria of the integrity assessment highly depend on the quality of the data gathered, and the appropriate selection of significant variables in the corrosion mechanism. This approach a

Abstract Cities represent intricate tapestries of diverse infrastructures where elements with distinct functions coexist in a complex harmony. Notably, high-rise buildings, which exert a significant influence on a city's aesthetics, serve a purpose that extends beyond their architectural significance. Their role encompasses the protection of lives and property in the face of calamity. In the unfortunate event of a fire within a steel-framed structure, a myriad of factors comes into play: combustion gases, flames, intense heat, and harmful smoke.
