Background: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) present a formidable challenge for healthcare institutions, resulting in heightened mortality, morbidity, and economic burden. Within settings, various equipment materials, including mobile phones, can potentially act as sources of infection. This study sought to examine the occurrence bacterial contamination on phones utilized by workers (HCWs) intensive care units (ICUs), pediatric (PICUs), neonatal (NICUs), cardiac (CCUs) within central...
Background This study evaluated the chemical composition, antioxidant activity and antibacterial properties of methanol extracts Ocimum basilicum L. leaves that were gathered from Kingdom Saudi Arabia's Jazan province. Materials Methods The extract was examined using FTIR GC-MS techniques, which revealed presence terpenes (53.14%), Linalool (24.5%), sulfoxides (4.19%), cinnamic acid (5.23%), fatty esters (1.45%) phthalic (0.72%). Results contained significant levels total phenolic compounds...
We undertook enhanced surveillance of those presenting with respiratory symptoms at five healthcare centers by testing all symptomatic outpatients between November 2013 and January 2014 (winter time). Nasal swabs were collected from 182 patients screened for MERS-CoV as well other viruses using RT-PCR multiplex microarray. A total 75 (41.2%) these had positive viral infection. was not detected in any the samples. Human rhinovirus (hRV) most pathogen (40.9%) followed non-MERS-CoV human...
This work aimed to identify the bioactive constituents and antibacterial activity of a cold methanolic extract Olea europaea leaves. GC–MS analysis leaves O. L. revealed several unique compounds, including 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (Z,Z)-, n-hexadecanoic acid, 9-octadecenamide, (Z)-, hexadecanoic 2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethyl ester, squalene, 2-(2-Hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)-3,5,6-trimethylpyrazine, Benzoic 4-formyl-, methyl 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol, Vitamin E etc. The FT-IR spectrum distinct...
According to the World Health Organization, increasing antibiotic resistance of pathogens is one most important threats human health. Prevalence a carbapenem-resistance gene (KPC), vancomycin-resistance genes (van A/B) and methicillin-resistance (mecA) in hospital municipal sewages will be potential threat public health.Vancomycin-resistance were detected sewage community tank-II, tank tertiary general hospital. Carbapenem-resistance was tank-II from Methicillin-resistance fish market an...
Reports on the composition of oral bacteriome in Arabs are lacking. In addition, majority previous studies other ethnic groups have been limited by low-resolution taxonomic assignment next-generation sequencing reads. Furthermore, there has a conflict about existence 'core' bacteriome.The objective this study was to characterize healthy core young Arab population at species level.Oral rinse DNA samples obtained from 12 stringently selected subjects origin were pyrosequenced (454's FLX...
Background: A few recent studies have characterized the salivary microbiome in association with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Here, we sought to assess if there is an between tongue and ASD.Methods: Tongue scrapping samples were obtained from 25 children ASD 38 neurotypical controls. The sequenced for 16S rRNA gene (V1-V3) resultant high-quality reads assigned species-level using our previously described BLASTn-based algorithm. Downstream analyses of microbial profiles conducted QIIME,...
Clostridium difficile (Clostridioides difficile) is a leading cause of nosocomial infections in hospitalized patients worldwide. Stool samples were collected from 112 inpatients admitted to different hospitals and screened for C. GDH + toxin A B by immunoassay, all positive immunoassay processed molecular detection using the GeneXpert assay. strains detected 12 (10.71%) out stool method toxigenic was confirmed 5 also 7 (8.97%) 78 intensive care unit patients, 3 (25%) internal medicine ward 1...
The present work was designed to investigate the presence of bioactive chemicals in reaction mixtures (RMs) peels Valencia, Mandarin, and African navel oranges, through GC-MS FT-IR studies. Limonene, a unique compound, is RMs three orange peels. Moreover, hexadecanoic acid 2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl) ethyl ester identified all three-orange RM Mandarin exhibited potent cytotoxic effect against MCF-7 ATCC human breast cancer cells (HBC). All moderate antibacterial activity pathogenic bacteria...
The desert plant C. retrospiciens (Ehrenb.) is an inhabitant of the southern region Kingdom Saudi Arabia (KSA). stem produces a gel which often applied by local people to cure wounds. This study was aimed at determination antifungal effect exudate (EG) against Candida albicans (C. albicans). activity EG measured using agar well diffusion method. Results showed excellent gel. spectrum almost equivalent that standard amphotericin B, with statistical insignificance (p < 0.05).
