Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial Resistance Profile of Planktonic and Biofilm Cells of Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci
Adilson de Oliveira,Valéria Cataneli Pereira,Luiza Pinheiro,Danilo Flávio Moraes Riboli,Katheryne Benini Martins,Maria de Lourdes Ribeiro de Souza da Cunha +5 more
TL;DR: Linezolid was the most effective drug in inhibiting staphylococci in the biofilm, without an increase in the MIC, when compared to planktonic cells, and none of the isolates were resistant to this drug.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics of resistance and virulence factors in different species of coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from milk of healthy sheep and animals with subclinical mastitis
Katheryne Benini Martins,Patrícia Yoshida Faccioli,Mariana Fávero Bonesso,Simone Fernandes,Aline Aparecida de Oliveira,Ariane Dantas,Luiz Francisco Zafalon,Maria de Lourdes Ribeiro de Souza da Cunha +7 more
TL;DR: The virulence and resistance factors to antimicrobial agents in different CNS species isolated from sheep milk and survey of toxin genes has shown that 70 (62.5%) samples showed some toxin-encoding gene, however, none of the samples has expressed any of the genes from those toxins studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of the mecA gene and identification of Staphylococcus directly from blood culture bottles by multiplex polymerase chain reaction
Taisa Trevizani Rocchetti,Katheryne Benini Martins,Patricia Yoshida Faccioli Martins,Rogério Antonio de Oliveira,Alessandro Lia Mondelli,Carlos Magno Castelo Branco Fortaleza,Maria de Lourdes Ribeiro de Souza da Cunha +6 more
TL;DR: The multiplex PCR assay developed here was found to be sensitive, specific, rapid, and showed good agreement with the phenotypic results besides being less expensive, which may reduce misuse of antimicrobial classes that are more expensive and toxic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation of phenotypic tests with the presence of the blaZ gene for detection of beta-lactamase.
Adriano Martison Ferreira,Katheryne Benini Martins,Vanessa Rocha da Silva,Alessandro Lia Mondelli,Maria de Lourdes Ribeiro de Souza da Cunha +4 more
TL;DR: The present results demonstrated that the zone edge test was the most sensitive phenotypic test for detection of beta-lactamase, although it is still not an ideal test to detect this type of resistance since its specificity was low.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro Effects of Antimicrobial Agents on Planktonic and Biofilm Forms of Staphylococcus saprophyticus Isolated From Patients With Urinary Tract Infections.
Katheryne Benini Martins,Adriano Martison Ferreira,Valéria Cataneli Pereira,Luiza Pinheiro,Adilson de Oliveira,Maria de Lourdes Ribeiro de Souza da Cunha +5 more
TL;DR: Staphylococcus saprophyticus biofilms exhibited a considerable increase in MICB when compared to the planktonic forms, with an increase of more than 32 times in the MICB of some drugs.
