Abstract

Antibiotic sensitivity and relation to typical staphylococcus bacteriophages of 1500 cultures of Staphylococcus and 100 cultures of Gram-negative bacteria, isolated from patients and carriers in clinics and subdivisions of the institute of traumatology and orthopaedics, have been studied. R-plasmids have been isolated from Gram-negative microorganisms, possessing plural resistance to antibiotics and relating to Enterobacteriaceae family. Failed to determine dependence between Staphylococcus cultures, isolated from patients and carriers in order to call them hospital-acquired ones. It has been noted predominance of the 11 phagocyte cultures in orthopaedic clinical picture of children and high percentage (55.1) of Staphylococcus carriage state in the clinical picture of acute traumata. Failed to detect hospital infection under the conditions of traumatologic hospital with application of common methods of bacteriologic investigations.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases (ASM)

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.

Bacteriophage: Phage Therapy

Phage therapy uses bacterial viruses (bacteriophages) to treat bacterial infections and is widely being recognized as an alternative to antibiotics. Here is the latest research.

Antifungals

An antifungal, also known as an antimycotic medication, is a pharmaceutical fungicide or fungistatic used to treat and prevent mycosis such as athlete's foot, ringworm, candidiasis, cryptococcal meningitis, and others. Discover the latest research on antifungals here.

Antimicrobial Resistance (ASM)

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

CRISPR & Staphylococcus

CRISPR-Cas system enables the editing of genes to create or correct mutations. Staphylococci are associated with life-threatening infections in hospitals, as well as the community. Here is the latest research on how CRISPR-Cas system can be used for treatment of Staphylococcal infections.
