Comparison Of Pcr- And Hinfi Restriction Endonuclease-Based Methods For Typing Of Candida Krusei Isolates
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2004)
We compared HinfI restriction endonuclease-based analysis of genomic DNA with a PCR-based method for molecular typing of 90 Candida krusei isolates from 17 geographically related patients. Strain groupings by these methods ...
Systemic Phaeohyphomycosis due to Exophiala (Wangiella) in an Immunocompetent Child
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2009)
We report a rare case of systemic lymphadenitis and hepatic involvement due to Exophiala (Wangiella) dermatitidis in a pediatric patient. An 8-year-old immunocompetent boy with chronic fever was examined through the use ...
The Changing Nature of Aminoglycoside Resistance Mechanisms and Prevalence of Newly Recognized Resistance Mechanisms in Turkey
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 2001)
Objective, To determine the most frequently. occurring individual and combined resistance mechanisms, in Gram-negative bacteria resistant to any of the clinically available aminoglycosides in Turkey, and to compare these ...
Performance of Three Pcr Methods Targeting Different Regions of Viral Genome for the Detection of Ttv in Non A-E Hepatitis, Chronic B and C Hepatitis and Healthy Blood Donors
(Springer, 2006)
TT virus (TTV) was suggested to be the etiologic agent for non A-E hepatitis but this could not yet be proven due to high detection rates not only in hepatitis but also in healthy persons and sensitivity differences of PCR ...
Lens Concentration of Ofloxacin and Lomefloxacin in an Experimental Endophthalmitis Model
(Elsevier, 2007)
Background: Bacterial endophthalmitis is a serious complication of ocular surgery and penetrating trauma. The primary causative organisms are strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Fluoroquinolones ...
Efficacy of Nasopharyngeal Culture In Identification of Pathogens in Middle Ear Fluid in Chronic Otitis Media With Effusion
(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2009)
Purpose: Chronic otitis media with effusion (OME) is the leading cause of hearing loss during childhood. In bacterial etiology of OME, the most frequent pathogens responsible are Haemophilus influenzae followed by Streptococcus ...
Antimicrobial Resistance In Invasive Strains Of Escherichia Coli From Southern And Eastern Mediterranean Laboratories
(ESCMID, 2008)
From January 2003 to December 2005, 5091 susceptibility test results from invasive isolates of Escherichia coli, collected from blood cultures and cerebrospinal fluid routinely processed within 58 participating laboratories, ...
Molecular Investigation Of A Fungemia Outbreak Due To Candida Parapsilosis In An Intensive Care Unit
(Elsevier Brazil, 2008)
We investigated a nosocomial cluster of four Candida parapsilosis fungemia episodes that occurred in a neurological intensive care unit over a two-week period. The four infected patients had received parenteral nutrition ...
In Vitro Activity Of Nystatin Compared With Those Of Liposomal Nystatin, Amphotericin B, And Fluconazole Against Clinical Candida Isolates
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2002)
We investigated the in vitro activity of nystatin and liposomal nystatin against 103 Candida isolates to determine the effect of both time and medium on MICs. We also compared the nystatin MICs with those of amphotericin ...
In Vitro Activity Of Caspofungin Compared To Amphotericin B, Fluconazole, And Itraconazole Against Candida Strains Isolated In A Turkish University Hospital
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005)
We investigated the in vitro activity of caspofungin compared to amphotericin B, fluconazole, and itraconazole against clinical strains of Candida spp. ( n = 239). Antifungal susceptibility tests were done in accordance ...
