Continuous development of additive manufacturing technologies has reached new areas, including medical research and healthcare applications, where precision, highly accurate reproducibility, disinfection, or even sterility the end product is essential. The study aims to critically evaluate effect different sterilization disinfection methods for most commonly used materials in device development: PLA (polylactic acid), PETG (polyethylene terephthalate glycol), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene...
Asymptomatic bacterial colonization of the urinary bladder (asymptomatic bacteriuria, ABU) can prevent by uropathogens and thus symptomatic tract infection (UTI). Deliberate with E.coli ABU isolate 83972 has been shown to outcompete UTI interference. Many isolates evolved from uropathogenic ancestors and, although attenuated, may still be able express virulence-associated factors. Our aim was screen for efficient safe candidate strains that could used as alternatives preventive therapeutic...
Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen, demonstrated as etiological agent in human infections increasing frequency, including diseases like purulent meningitis, sepsis, uveitis-endophtalmitis and arthritis. Due to the increased availability utility of novel diagnostic technologies clinical microbiology, more studies have been published on epidemiology S. suis, both veterinary medicine; however, there are no comprehensive data available regarding from East-Central...
Data on the prevalence of MCR-producing Enterobacterales animal origin are scarce from Arabian Peninsula. We investigated presence and variety such strains fecal specimens poultry collected in four farms United Arab Emirates. Colonies ten composite samples per farm grown colistin-supplemented plates were PCR-screened for alleles mcr gene. Thirty-nine isolates selected based species, colony morphology, plasmid profile subjected to whole genome sequencing. The panel their resistance virulence...
Background: The species of the Bacteroides fragilis group are important components human microbiota, but as opportunistic pathogens they can be causative agents severe infections.Methods: major aims our investigation were evaluation susceptibility 400 different Hungarian B. isolates to 10 antibiotics by agar dilution method, comparison resistance data with previous national and international antibiotic present in regional aspect. MIC-values on all strains determined method CLSI. presence...
Antimicrobials in wastewater promote the emergence of antibiotic resistance, facilitated by selective pressure and transfer resistant genes. Enteric bacteria belonging to Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, oxytoca, Enterobacter cloacae, Citrobacter species (n = 126) from hospital effluents proximate treatment plant were assayed for susceptibility four antimicrobial classes. The β-lactamase encoding genes harbored plasmids genotyped sequenced. A multidrug resistance phenotype was found...
Abstract Our objective was to compare the activity ceftazidime-avibactam (C/A) and ceftolozane–tazobactam (C/T) against multidrug (including carbapenem) resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolates collected from six diagnostic centers in Hungary reveal genetic background of their carbapenem resistance. Two hundred fifty consecutive, non-duplicate, carbapenem-resistant (MDR) P. were 2017. Minimal inhibitory concentration values ceftazidime, cefepime, piperacillin/tazobactam, C/A C/T...
Members of the genus Bacteroides are important components normal microbiota gastrointestinal tract; however, as opportunistic pathogens also associated with severe or even life-threatening infections significant mortality. Various species within fragilis group phenotypically very similar; thus, their identifications traditional-automated biochemical methods frequently inaccurate. The identification newly discovered reclassified bacteria can be doubtful because lack profile in database these...
Knowledge of intraspecific variability a certain species is essential for their long-term survival and the development conservation plans. Nowadays, molecular/genetic methods are most frequently used this purpose. Although, Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) technique has become promising alternative tool to specify variability, there lack information about limitations method, some methodological issues need be resolved. Towards goal, we...
Although vanA carrying Enterococcus faecium human clinical isolates have been rarely found in Hungary before 2012, they detected continuously increasing numbers since then. To identify factors associated with their dissemination, we investigated the clonal relatedness and plasmids of 30 E. originating from different Hungarian healthcare institutions 2012 to 2014. Molecular typing (n = 30) was performed pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multilocus sequence typing, Tn1546 polymerase...
We present plasmid sequences of 21 multidrug resistant isolates Enterobacterales belonging to Escherichia coli (n=10), Klebsiella pneumoniae (n=9), oxytoca (n=1), and Citrobacter freundii (n=1). The originated from effluent collected hospital sewer pipes a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in southwestern Hungarian city. Isolation was carried out using eosin methylene blue agar supplemented with ceftriaxone the were identified MALDI-TOF MS. Screening for resistance conducted by determining...
