Introduction Patients with nosocomial infections are at risk of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa since these bacteria slow down the entire treatment process, increasing morbidity and mortality patients staying in hospital. The purpose research was to assess simultaneous presence multidrug resistance virulence factors among strains P. evaluate significant association them. Methods One hundred eight clinical isolates were found a variety samples taken from having infection,...
Abstract Aim Infertility affects a significant proportion of women worldwide, and the colonization certain vaginal pathogens has been suggested as possible contributing factor. To explore relationship between bacterial female infertility, case–control study was conducted involving 55 infertile cases 5 fertile controls. Method Conventional culture‐based techniques biochemical assays followed by 16S rDNA sequence analysis were employed for identification isolates from two groups. The strength...
Background Nipah virus (NiV) infection poses a significant threat to global public health. Understanding its initial acute clinical phase and associated immunological responses may be crucial for assessing prognosis as well developing effective treatment strategies. Methods: During the 2023 2024 NiV outbreaks in Bangladesh, laboratory data from 15 confirmed cases were collected this study. Throat swabs serum samples tested viral detection by real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain...
The genetic variability of hepatitis B virus (HBV) represents a challenge for the sensitivity immunologic and molecular based assays. Based on sequence divergences in entire genome >8 %, HBV genomes have been classified into ten genotypes designated as A to J. aim this study was determine subtype samples infected patients Bangladesh. sera were collected from chronically patients. At first DNA positive screened by EIA our laboratory 1063 bp region surface gene amplified, sequenced genotyped...
Introduction The dysbiosis of vaginal microbiota is recognized as a potential underlying factor contributing to infertility in women. This study aimed compare the microbiomes infertile and fertile women investigate their relationship with infertility. Methods Metagenomic analysis was conducted on samples from 5 individuals using both amplicon 16S metagenomics shotgun sequencing methods. Results discussion In group, bacterial community primarily represented by three major genera:...
Wastewater discharged from hospitals is a recognized contributor to the dissemination of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and their associated genetic traits into environment. This study focused on analysis β-lactamase-producing pathogenic within untreated biomedical wastewater originating various in Dhaka City, Bangladesh, as well silico evaluation structural activity relationship mentioned antibiotics were evaluated. In drug design techniques applied identify with how functional group impacts...
Multidrug resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a threat to the patients having nosocomial infections as this pathogen increases inpatients’ morbidity and mortality by slowing down whole treatment process. The aim of study was evaluate multidrug phenotypes among strains P. for analyzing their antibiotic susceptibility pattern. A total 108 clinical isolates were recovered from various samples (pus, wound swab, urine, sputum, blood tracheal aspirate) with infections. Antibiogram performed...
In Bangladesh, anthrax, caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis, is considered an endemic disease affecting ruminants with sporadic zoonotic occurrences in humans. Due to lack of knowledge about risks from incorrect removal infected carcasses, not properly monitored, and because socio-economic conditions, situation under-reported under-diagnosed. For sensitive species, anthrax represents a fatal outcome sudden death sometimes bleeding natural orifices. The most common source infection for...
The diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in developing countries, such as Bangladesh, is based mainly on microscopic detection acid-fast bacilli smears from clinical specimens. On the other hand, TB by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) quite new Bangladesh. In this study, we compared molecular method with conventional procedures, where Lowenstein-Jensen medium culture results have been used "gold standard."A total 135 sputum samples were collected clinically suspected patients pulmonary TB. A direct...
Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae, ubiquitous in aquatic environments, is responsible for cholera; humans can become infected after consuming food and/or water contaminated with the bacterium. The underlying basis of persistence V. cholerae environment remains poorly understood despite decades research. We recently described a “persister” phenotype that survived nutrient-poor “filter sterilized” lake (FSLW) excess 700-days. Previous reports suggest microorganisms assume growth advantage stationary...
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is considered among the most important recently emerged food-borne bacteria causing severe hemorrhagic diarrhea. Antibiotic treatment not recommended as a prospective curative agent against this pathogen. Therefore, potency assessment of local lytic phage isolates infecting E. an alternate remedy to antibiotics was principal concern study. Phage were checked by polymerase chain reaction for presence virulence genes stx1 and stx2, safe phages further screened in vitro...
Abstract Background Cervical cancer is a gynecologic type that develops in the cervix, accounting for 8% mortality of all female patients. Infection with specific human papillomavirus (HPV) types considered most severe risk factor cervical cancer. In context our socioeconomic conditions, an increasing burden this disease and high rate prevail Bangladesh. Although several researches related to epidemiology, HPV vaccination, treatment modalities were conducted, on mutation profiles marker...
A multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was evaluated for simultaneous detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella enteritidis in shrimp samples. The sensitivity DNA amplification by PCR this found to be 103 cfu/ml each pathogen. When protocol adopted the above mentioned pathogen spiked extract culture, similar observed. However, detected 1 bacterial cell E. O157:H7 S. 100 L. per 25 g samples after overnight enrichment. In commercially imported...
In October, 2010, epidemic cholera was reported for the first time in Haiti over 100 years. Establishment of endemicity will be dependent large part on continued presence toxigenic V. cholerae O1 aquatic reservoirs. The rugose phenotype cholerae, characterized by exopolysaccharide production that confers resistance to environmental stress, is a potential contributor persistence. Using microbiologic medium promoting high-frequency conversion smooth (S–R) phenotype, 80 (46.5%) 172 strains...
The total aerobic plate count (APC), coliform counts and the population of Listeria monocytogenes in cut cabbage, washed with distilled water (DW) sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), were determined at 25°C 10°C. APC, L. was reduced significantly just after NaClO washing (P < 0.05), however, subsequent increases these observed when stored 25°C. When temperature shift-up to three different time frames (4, 16, 24h) applied during 48 h storage 10°C, it that 2 any point did not remarkably affect either...
Human papillomavirus (HPV) comprises around 120 genotypically related viruses, classified into low- and high-risk HPVs, which are capable of replicating inside the keratinocytes skin or mucous membranes. Studies suggest that infections with HPV-16 HPV-18 have a higher rate developing cancer. The aim our study was to detect HPV early, estimate genotype-specific prevalence in apparently healthy asymptomatic females Bangladesh.After cervical swab specimen collection, VIA test performed identify...
Despite a considerable body of published research on Hepatitis B in Bangladesh, researchers continue to lament the lack reliable information about epidemiology. The present review aims provide comprehensive survey literature with particular focus number epidemiological questions, as well commentary trends it has taken place Bangladesh. key themes emerge from this are: first, beyond noting declining trend, is difficult conclusive estimates prevalence general population majority studies, even...
Background and Objectives: Rifampicin (RIF) isoniazid (INH), two most potent antibiotics, are prescribed to cure tuberculosis. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB), is resistant these first-line drugs. Here, molecular techniques were demonstrated such as PCR sequencing-based GeneXpert assay for rapidly identifying MDR-TB. Materials Methods: Pulmonary samples (sputum) collected from 55 MDR-TB suspected patients Na- tional Tuberculosis...
