Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely known for their probiotic activities centuries. These synthesise some secretory proteinaceous toxins, bacteriocins, which help destroy similar or interrelated bacterial strains. This study was aimed at characterising bacteriocins extracted from Lactobacillus spp. found in yoghurt and assessing bactericidal effect on foodborne bacteria. Twelve isolated were examined to produce by the organic solvent extraction method. Bacteriocins produced two of these...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the major pathogens associated with acute tissue damage in patients having Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU). The treatment such infections can be an uphill battle due to serious resistance all mainstay antibiotics, owing overzealous production Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs). Pakistan also has a high prevalence diabetes and complications related it, however genetic disposition remains underinvestigated.The main objective study was determine frequency ESBLs...
Abstract Oral diseases caused by various microorganisms are common around the world. Scientific research has now been focusing on novel medicines to overcome bacterial resistance and antibiotics side effects; therefore, current study was designed assess efficacy of certain antibiotics, toothpaste, medicinal plant extracts (Ajuga bracteosa Curcuma longa) versus pathogens isolated from human oral cavity. A total 130 samples were collected Khyber Teaching Hospital Peshawar, Pakistan, among...
Background: Escherichia coli various strains can cause alarmingly serious infections. Countries like Pakistan harbour the class of bacteria with one highest rates resistance, but very little has been done to explore their genetic pool. Objectives: This study was designed find out frequency virulence genes Uropathogenic E. and association antibiotic resistance along evolutionary adaptation selected gene through phylogenetic tree. Methods: Isolates from 120 urinary tract infected patients were...
