Introduction. A significant cause of mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU) is multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC). Biofilm production a key factor KPC colonization and persistence host, making treatment difficult. Gap Statement. The aim this study was to evaluate antibiotic resistance, molecular phenotypic biofilm profiles 12 isolates associated with nosocomial infection hospital Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil....
ErpY-like protein (LIC11966) is an antigen from Leptospira spp., which possibly involved in the infection process and, consequently, can be a promising solution for development of new diagnostic tests and vaccines. Here, presence erpY-like gene was evaluated several serovars by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), recombinant produced characterized terms antigenicity immunogenicity vivo. The detected PCR all pathogenic tested (n = 8) absent saprophytic ones. rErpY-like recognized antibodies...
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus—A. baumannii (ACB) complex isolates recovered from a university hospital in Pelotas, RS, Brazil. The species were confirmed using gyrB multiplex blaOXA-51-like genes PCR. presence bfmRS virulence gene was evaluated by PCR, classified based on their biofilm-forming ability polystyrene (PO) glass surfaces (TM). Out 50 ACB evaluated, 41 identified as A. nine nosocomialis....
