Prevention of Escherichia coli K1 bacteremia in newborn mice by using topical vaginal carbohydrates.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pregnant Swiss-Webster mice were vaginally inoculated with 5 x 10(4) Escherichia coli K1 strain LH (O75:K1:H3) or C94 (O7:K1:H-). Inhibitor solutions were applied vaginally before delivery and the incidence of bacteremia and surface colonization determined in neonates at 3 days of age. E. coli K1

Bacteremia due to Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens. Report of a case.

Only registered users can translate articles

An unusual case report of a patient with bacteremia due to Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens is presented. Heretofore, Succinivibrio spp. were thought to occur only as organisms in the rumens of herbivorous animals. Succinivibrio is an anaerobic, Gram-negative, curved, spiral bacillus with a polar

Lipopolysaccharide O-antigen promotes persistent murine bacteremia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bacteremia is a common complication of pneumonia with Klebsiella pneumoniae. In the previous work, we have shown that the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) O-antigen in K. pneumoniae O1:K2 contributes to lethality during pneumonia in part by promoting bacteremia. In the current work, we studied an

Lactobacilli and bacteremia in southern Finland, 1989-1992.

In order to assess the potential of lactobacilli to cause serious infections, we studied the prevalence of bacteremia due to Lactobacillus species during a 4-year period (1989-1992) in southern Finland, which has a population of about 2.5 million. Among 3,317 blood culture isolates, lactobacilli

Six cases of Lactobacillus bacteraemia: identification of organisms and antibiotic susceptibility and therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Six cases of bacteraemia in hospitalized patients, 5 with a depressed immune status, were caused by lactobacilli. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of whole-cell proteins and API 50 CH carbohydrate patterns assigned the causative agents to the species Lactobacillus rhamnosus,

Rapid molecular diagnosis of lactobacillus bacteremia by terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the 16S rRNA gene.

OBJECTIVE Bacteremia due to lactobacilli is uncommon, yet it is increasing in frequency, especially among immunosuppressed patients. In the clinical laboratory, lactobacilli must be subcultured from positive blood cultures before identification by traditional biochemical methods. Delays in diagnosis

Carbapenem-resistant and cephalosporin-susceptible Pseudomonas aeruginosa: a notable phenotype in patients with bacteremia.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED Pseudomonas aeruginosa is recognized as a major cause of severe and potentially life-threatening infection. However, P. aeruginosa isolates with the phenotype of being carbapenem resistant and cephalosporin susceptible (Carb-R/Ceph-S) have not been thoroughly characterized to date. The

A highly active and negatively charged Streptococcus pyogenes lysin with a rare D-alanyl-L-alanine endopeptidase activity protects mice against streptococcal bacteremia.

Bacteriophage endolysins have shown great efficacy in killing Gram-positive bacteria. PlyC, a group C streptococcal phage lysin, represents the most efficient lysin characterized to date, with a remarkably high specificity against different streptococcal species, including the important pathogen

Role of the pyruvate metabolic network on carbohydrate metabolism and virulence in Streptococcus pneumoniae

Only registered users can translate articles

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major human pathogen that must adapt to unique nutritional environments in several host niches. The pneumococcus can metabolize a range of carbohydrates that feed into glycolysis ending in pyruvate, which is catabolized by several enzymes. We investigated how the

The Klebsiella pneumoniae O antigen contributes to bacteremia and lethality during murine pneumonia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bacterial surface carbohydrates are important pathogenic factors in gram-negative pneumonia infections. Among these factors, O antigen has been reported to protect pathogens against complement-mediated killing. To examine further the role of O antigen, we insertionally inactivated the gene encoding

A semisynthetic carbohydrate-lipid vaccine that protects against S. pneumoniae in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Severe forms of pneumococcal meningitis, bacteraemia and pneumonia result in more than 1 million deaths each year despite the widespread introduction of carbohydrate-protein conjugate vaccines against Streptococcus pneumoniae. Here we describe a new and highly efficient antipneumococcal vaccine

Evaluation of the API 20 STREP system for species identification of "viridans" streptococci isolated from bacteremia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Species identifications of 71 strains of viridans streptococci isolated from blood and 4 reference strains were made by the API 20 STREP system (API system S. A., Montalieu-Vercien, France) and the conventional method. There are high levels of agreement between results obtained with the both methods

Brain carbohydrate metabolism during experimental Haemophilus influenzae meningitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Five-day-old infant rats which acquire Haemophilus influenzae b bacteremia and meningitis after intranasal inoculation have a transient depression in weight gain (2 days), but then continue to grow at the same rate as strain U--11 inoculated controls. Brain lactate, glucose, and glycogen

Crystal structure of the catalytic domain of Clostridium perfringens neuraminidase in complex with a non-carbohydrate-based inhibitor, 2-(cyclohexylamino)ethanesulfonic acid.

Only registered users can translate articles

Anti-bacterial and anti-viral neuraminidase agents inhibit neuraminidase activity catalyzing the hydrolysis of terminal N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) from glycoconjugates and help to prevent the host pathogenesis that lead to fatal infectious diseases including influenza, bacteremia, sepsis, and

Risk factors for treatment failure in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia receiving appropriate antibiotic therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate modifiable risk factors and predictors for treatment failure (TF) in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) receiving appropriate antibiotic therapy. METHODS An observational cohort study performed in an intensive care unit (ICU) of a
