Rumyana Markovska,Ines Schneider,Emma Keuleyan,M. Sredkova,Dobrinka Ivanova,Boyka Markova,Grozdanka Lazarova,Elisaveta Dragijeva,Encho Savov,Irina Haydouchka,Nasya Hadjieva,Lena Setchanova,Ivan Mitov,Adolf Bauernfeind +13 more
TL;DR: Plasmid fingerprinting and random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis typing revealed wide dissemination of identical plasmids among different bacterial species and hospitals, as well as clonal spread of ESBL producers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of culture method and real-time PCR for detection of putative periodontopathogenic bacteria in deep periodontal pockets
TL;DR: Better sensitivity of the real-time PCR, when compared to the microbiological culture method, was demonstrated, in regards to the detection of the periodontal pathogens, and the lower detection levels of the cultivation methods may be explained by the problems of keeping pathogenic bacteria viable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbiological characterization of Streptococcus pneumoniae and non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae isolates as primary causes of acute otitis media in Bulgarian children before the introduction of conjugate vaccines.

TL;DR: The levels of antibiotic resistance among S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae causing severe AOM in children are high in the authors' settings and the existence of multidrug-resistant S. coronavirus pneumoniae serotype 19A is of particular concern.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Pneumococcal Serotype Replacement and Distribution Estimation (PSERENADE) project as discussed by the authors evaluated the global evidence to estimate the impact of 10-and 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccines by age, product, schedule, and syndrome.

TL;DR: The Pneumococcal Serotype Replacement and Distribution Estimation (PSERENADE) project described the serotype distribution of remaining pneumococcal meningitis in countries using PCV10/13 for at least 5-7 years with primary series uptake above 70% as mentioned in this paper.
