Oxa-16, A Further Extended-Spectrum Variant Of Oxa-10 Beta-Lactamase, From Two Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolates
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 1998)Two extended-spectrum mutants of the class D beta-lactamase OXA-10 (PSE-2) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates obtained in Ankara, Turkey, were described previously and were designated OXA-11 and -14. P. aeruginosa 906 ... -
Oxa-17, A Further Extended-Spectrum Variant Of Oxa-10 Beta-Lactamase, Isolated From Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 1999)Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates 871 and 873 were isolated at Hacettepe University Hospital in Ankara and were highly resistant to ceftazidime (MIC, 128 mu g/ml). Each produced three beta-lactamases, with pIs of 5.3, 6.1, ... -
Preliminary Evaluation of an Immunochromatographic Strip Test for Specific Treponema Pallidum Antibodies
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2002)We evaluated a prototype immunochromatographic strip (ICS) test for qualitative detection of Treponema pallidum antibodies in 353 sera from 157 patients. For sera from 43 syphilis patients, the ICSs were reactive, while ... -
Quinolones in Treatment of Human Brucellosis Comparative Trial of Ofloxacin-Rifampin Versus Doxycycline-Rifampin
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 1993)Quinolones have been reported to be active against Brucella species in vitro. In this prospective randomized study, the efficacy and safety of the combination of ofloxacin plus rifampin were compared with the efficacy and ... -
Rapid Detection of Rifampin Resistance in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Isolates by Heteroduplex Analysis and Determination of Rifamycin Cross-Resistance in Rifampin-Resistant Isolates
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2003)Direct heteroduplex analysis and a universal heteroduplex generator assay were performed to detect rifampin resistance rapidly in Turkish Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates. Cross-resistance to rifapentine, rifabutin, and ... -
Rapid Determination of Rifampin Resistance in Clinical Isolates of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis by Real-Time Pcr
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2005)Real-time PCR was used to determine rifampin resistance in clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Ninety-six rifampin-resistant isolates and 23 rifampin-susceptible isolates were included in the study. A 305-bp ... -
Serotypes of Streptococcus Pneumoniae Isolates from Children with Invasive Pneumococcal Disease in Turkey: Baseline Evaluation of the Introduction of the Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine Nationwide
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2011)Before use of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine PCV7 became widespread in Turkey, 202 invasive pneumococcus isolates were analyzed. The most common serotypes were 19F and 6B. In children <= 2 years of age, the potential ... -
Treatment Of Enteric Fever With Pefloxacin For 7 Days Versus 5 Days: A Randomized Clinical Trial
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 1996)In this prospective study of enteric fever, 22 patients received 400 mg of pefloxacin twice daily for 5 days (group A) and 24 received 400 mg of pefloxacin twice daily for 7 days (group B). Causative microorganisms were ...
