Biofilm formation in enterococci: genotype-phenotype correlations and inhibition by vancomycin.
TL;DR: Assessment of the biofilm-forming ability of 90 enterococcal clinical isolates found that detection of gelE in Enterococcus faecalis is not sufficient to predict gelatinase activity, and agg and fsrB genes are suggested, together with the previously established gelE, for better prediction of biofilm strength and gelatinases activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
1,2 Propanediol utilization by Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 20016, role in bioconversion of glycerol to 1,3 propanediol, 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde and 3-hydroxypropionic acid
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the metabolism of 1,2 propandiol by Lactobacillus reuteri and elucidate the metabolites produced during the process using HPLC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioinformatics determination of ETEC signature genes as potential targets for molecular diagnosis and reverse vaccinology
TL;DR: This study focuses on enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), one of the world's deadliest infectious agents, which also represents a serious public health in Egypt's rural areas and is integrated into multiple bioinformatics tools to determine horizontally transferred, pathotype-specific signature genes as targets for specific, high-throughput molecular diagnostic tools and reverse vaccinology screens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colonization of multi-drug resistant (mdr) acinetobacter baumannii isolated from tertiary hospitals in egypt and the possible role of the outer membrane protein (ompa)
Journal ArticleDOI
