<strong>Monitoring of Virulence Genes, Drug-Resistance in <em>Campylobacter coli</em> Isolated from Golden Retrievers</strong>
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Microbiology - Year 2016, Vol 65, Issue 2
Abstract
The investigation was performed on 75 of Golden Retriever puppies. Faecal samples were collected on the 42 day of the puppies life (control). Probiotic preparation was administered on 43 day of the puppies life and 10 days after the application of the probiotic, faecal samples were collected again (on 53 day of puppies life). All isolates of [i]Campylobacter coli [/i]isolated prior to the administration of the probiotic were found to contain the [i]cad[/i]F gene responsible for adhesion, as well as, the [i]fla[/i]A gene influencing motility of the examined bacteria. Significant differences (P &amp;lt; 0.05) were recorded only in the case of enrofloxacin.

Assessment of the Microbiological Status of Probiotic Products
The aim of this study was to perform the microbiological analysis of quality of 25 probiotic products, available on the Polish market. Analysis of bacterial viability in probiotic products showed that not all of these pr...
Characterization of Microbial Communities in Acidified, Sulfur Containing Soils
Over a period of three years, microbial communities in acidified soil with high sulfur content were analyzed. In soil water extracts ureolytic, proteolytic, oxidoreductive, and lipolytic activity were detected. The prese...
Non-invasive Diagnostic of Helicobacter pylori in Stools by Nested-qPCR
The aim of this study was to develop a non-invasive diagnostic test for the detection of Helicobacter pylori in stool samples from digestive symptomatic patients, using a new protocol of nested-qPCR. A total of 143 patie...
Metagenomic Analysis of Soil Bacterial Community and Level of Genes Responsible for Biodegradation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons
The aim of the studies was to compare the composition of soil bacterial metabiomes originating from urbanized areas and areas con¬taminated with hydrocarbons with those from agricultural soil and forest soil obtained fro...
Relapsing Bacteraemia due to [i]Corynebacterium striatum[/i] in a Patient with Peripheral Arterial Disease
We describe the first reported case of [i]Corynebacterium striatum [/i]([i]C. striatum[/i]) relapsing bacteraemia in a patient with peripheral arterial disease and proven [i]Corynebacterium[/i] species colonization...
