Quantitative Real-Time PCR for Detection of Acinetobacter baumannii Colonization in the Hospital Environment
(American Society of Microbiology, 2012)
A real-time PCR assay was developed for detecting the presence of Acinetobacter baumannii on hospital equipment and compared to conventional bacterial culture using 100 hospital environmental samples. The real-time PCR ...

Spanish Multicenter Study of the Epidemiology and Mechanisms of Amoxicillin-Clavulanate Resistance in Escherichia coli
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012-07)
We conducted a prospective multicenter study in Spain to characterize the mechanisms of resistance to amoxicillin-clavu-lanate (AMC) in Escherichia coli. Up to 44 AMC-resistant E. coli isolates (MIC>32/16 g/ml) were collected ...

Biotic factor does not limit operational pH in packed-bed bioreactor for ferrous iron biooxidation
(Oxford University Press, 2012-12-01)
Ferrous ion biooxidation is a process with many promising industrial applications: mainly regeneration of ferric ion as an oxidizing reagent in bioleaching processes and depuration of acid mine drainage. The flooded packedbed ...

Genomic basis of broad host range and environmental adaptability of Rhizobium tropici CIAT 899 and Rhizobium sp. PRF 81 which are used in inoculants for common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
(BioMed Central, 2012)
Background Rhizobium tropici CIAT 899 and Rhizobium sp. PRF 81 are α-Proteobacteria that establish nitrogen-fixing symbioses with a range of legume hosts. These strains are broadly used in commercial inoculants for ...

β-Lactam/β-Lactam Inhibitor Combinations for the Treatment of Bacteremia Due to Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli: A Post Hoc Analysis of Prospective Cohorts
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
Background. Extended-spectrum ß-lactamase–producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) is an important cause of invasive infections. Alternatives to carbapenems—considered the drugs of choice—are needed because of the emergence ...

A Set of Lotus japonicus Gifu × Lotus burttii Recombinant Inbred Lines Facilitates Map-based Cloning and QTL Mapping
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
Model legumes such as Lotus japonicus have contributed significantly to the understanding of symbiotic nitrogen fixation. This insight is mainly a result of forward genetic screens followed by map-based cloning to identify ...

Virulence Profiles of Bacteremic Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli: Association with Epidemiological and Clinical Features
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
There is scarce data about the importance of phylogroups and virulence factors (VF) in bloodstream infections (BSI) caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBLEC). A prospective multicenter ...

Genomewide overexpression screen for fosfomycin resistance in Escherichia coli: Mura confers clinical resistance at low fitness cost
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012-05-01)
To determine whether the overexpression of chromosomal genes can confer fosfomycin resistance, genomewide screening of a complete set of 5,272 plasmid-expressed open reading frames of Escherichia coli (ASKA collection) was ...

Estudio fenotópico y genotípico de los aislamientos de streptococcus pneumoniae causantes de enfermedad invasiva en el hospital Virgen del Rocío
(2012-06-13)
Streptococcus pneumoniae, fue descubierto simultáneamente por Pasteur y Sternberg en 1881, siendo uno de los primeros patógenos aislado, caracterizado y que jugó un papel muy importante en el desarrollo de la bacteriología ...
