In this study, we report the insertion sequence ISPpu21 in oprD porin gene of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from burn patients Tehran, Iran. Antibiotic susceptibility tests for P. were determined. Production metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) and carbapenemase was evaluated β-lactamase-encoding aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme genes investigated by PCR sequencing methods. The mRNA transcription level mex efflux pump real-time PCR. outer membrane protein profile determined...

Abstract: Mycobacterial infections are considered to a serious challenge of medicine, and the emergence MDR XDR tuberculosis is public health problem. Tuberculosis can cause high morbidity mortality around world, particularly in developing countries. The drug-resistant Mycobacterium infection following limited therapeutic technologies coupled with worldwide epidemic has adversely affected control programs, thus necessitating study role bacteriophages treatment mycobacterial infection....

Abstract We analyzed the potential antibacterial effects of two different PdB against methicillin-resistant S. aureus and P. aeruginosa . The third-degree burn wound healing was also studied. Blood samples were obtained from 10 healthy volunteers biological assays performed antimicrobial activity MRSA determined using disk diffusion (DD), broth microdilution (BMD), time-kill assay methods. 48 Wistar albino rats burned infected with MRSA. Two groups injected PdB, control treated plasma...

Purpose: The increase of bacterial resistance to common antibacterial agents is one the major problems health care systems and hospital infection control programs. In this study, antimicrobial activity titanium dioxide (TiO2 ) zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) was investigated against E. coli, Salmonella enteritidis, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus pathogenic bacteria by determining sensitivity coefficient kinetics death. Methods: Antimicrobial tests were performed with ~106...

Acinetobacter baumannii is an important human pathogen responsible for a various type of infections. These bacterial strains are generally resistant to numerous antibiotics. Therefore, eradication such problematic and related high mortality. We investigated the effect cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) efflux pump inhibitor in tigecycline-resistant baumannii. In cross-sectional study, from July until end February 2017, eighty isolates A. were recovered. Antimicrobial susceptibility...

Abstract: Mycobacterium tuberculosis, leprae, and non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are among the most significant human pathogens within genus. These can infect people who come into contact with biomaterials or have chronic illnesses. A characteristic pathogenic trait of is development biofilms, which involves several molecules, such as GroEL1 chaperone, glycopeptidolipids, shorter-chain mycolic acids. Bacterial behavior influenced by nutrients, ions, carbon sources, also play a regulatory...
