Background/Objectives: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infections present a significant clinical challenge due to limited therapeutic options and high transmission potential. This study aimed identify the resistance genes associated with carbapenemase production in CRKP isolates evaluate vitro activity of ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) meropenem/vaborbactam (MEV), among other β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations. Methods: Between October 2021 June 2022, total 504 were...

Tuberculosis is still a significant global health challenge, with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) posing risk for the development of active disease. This study aimed to compare performance STAN-DARD F TB-Feron FIA test QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus, endorsed by World Health Organization (WHO), in detecting LTBI. We included 137 participants, out which 58.4% were healthy and 41.6% undergoing immunosuppressive treatment. The agreement between QFT-Plus was substantial, an overall concordance...

Candida auris has emerged as a significant fungal threat due to its rapid worldwide spread since first appearance, along with potential for antimicrobial resistance and virulence properties. This study was designed examine characteristics, the efficacy of ceragenins, biofilm-derived drug in seven C. strains isolated from Turkish intensive care patients. It observed that none tested exhibited proteinase or hemolysis activity; however, they demonstrated weak phospholipase esterase activity. In...

Typing methods are essential in understanding of the transmission dynamics Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Several typing were described including opa-typing.The goal this study was to type all strains we isolated recent past by using auxo-, sero-, and opa-typing, compare discriminatory power these methods.Auxotyping, serotyping, opa-typing performed for 56 N. gonorrhoeae from male patients with urethritis.A total 9 auxotypes 33 serovars detected. Combining 2 systems, a 45 distinct auxotype/serovar...
