Pseudomonas aeruginosa

broad-spectrum antimicrobial effectiveness and utility in clinical health care settings. [44] Braid, et al (2002) carried out study on the antibacterial activity of triclosan-impregnated storage boxes against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa,…

aureus), Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii complex, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, klebsiella pneumonia , Escherichia coli ( E.coli), Enterococcus, Burkholderia, Enterobacter, Proteus, coagulase negative staphylococci ( S.epidermidis, S. saprophytic). Although most of gram–ve bacilli can’t remain in dry surfaces and sensitive to common disinfectant, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii complex, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumonia considered as the most common bacterial pathogens…

Introduction / Purpose: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common nosocomial infection in the intensive care unit (ICU). It caused prolonged hospital stay and increased mortality. In this study, we aimed to investigate the rate of VAP, causative microorganisms and their antibiotic susceptibilities. Materials and Method: This retrospective study included patients that admitted in 12-bed ICU between January 2013 and December 2014. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criterias…

On the third day, I put the bacteria that were in the broth tube on differential media. I chose to put the bacteria on EMB and Pseudo P plate, because I believed that the bacteria was either Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas aeruginosa, due to the shape and the fact that the mystery bacteria was gram negative. I also did a gram stain and the bacteria remained pink and bacillus or rod shaped. On the fourth day, I was able to observe the differential media. I noticed that…

Gram negative bacteria and as well against fungi. Antimicrobial activity of the drug Tal Sindoor can be tested in 2 methods i.e. Gradient plate technique and Kirby-bauer method. Tal Sindoor has an effective anti-microbial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans. But K. pneumoniae and A. Baumannii are resistant to Tal Sindoor like they are with other…

from plants to humans, P. aeruginosa is the quintessence of microbial arms depot. It produces a wide range of secondary metabolites to protect its niche from other fungi and distantly related bacteria. In order to fight fellow Pseudomonads and other closely related bacterial species that may compete for common niches, all strains of P. aeruginosa also produce a broad range of bacteriocins referred to as pyocins. The two major groups of pyocins produced by P. aeruginosa are (i) S-type pyocins…

of incubation, the result of the Urea agar slant was positive. This result reduced my possible bacterium’s identity to bacteria that would produce a positive result in a Urea agar slant. The possible bacteria were P. vulgaris, C. freundii, or P. aeruginosa. I was then able to completely rule out E. coli, E. aerogenes, and A. faecalis as possible…

It was used to make the nutrient broth. Then 2g of agar was added to the nutrients and it was dissolved in 100 mL distilled water and used as nutrient agar. The medium was sterilized. Maintenance of Bacterial Culture Bacillus cereus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were grown on nutrient agar plates and incubated at 370C for 24 hours. The bacterial culture was maintained at 40C and sub cultured routinely to ensure viability of the…

condition for 16 days. Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion test For determining of bacterial resistance to alginate-LPOS coating, disc diffusion test was conducted. In this procedure, antimicrobial activity of the coating on specific bacteria including Pseudomonas fluorescens NCTC 10038, Escherichia coli NCTC 12241 was investigated. These organism significantly can be found in in chicken meat (Molin and Ternström 1982; Montville and Matthews 1997). LPOS in concentrations of 0.5, 1, 2, 4,…

Results: In order to identify the gram negative isolate in the unknown #260 broth, I observed the bacterium under the microscope, created a stock culture, and conducted a variety of biochemical tests. First, I inoculated a blood agar plate and a MacConkey (MAC) agar plate with the unknown #260 mixed culture broth. The blood agar plate, shown in Figure 1, was inoculated using the quadrant streaking method and then incubated for 24 hours at 35 °C. In the third and fourth quadrants, two different…
