Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases Producers among Gram-negative Bacteria from Clinical and Environmental Sources in Two Tertiary Hospitals in Makurdi, Nigeria

Florence Bose Omoregbe & Obasola Ezekiel Fagade · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2020

Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) enzymes are produced by many Gram-negative bacteria to nearly all antibiotics. Clinical bacteria isolates were obtained from various clinical samples from the two healthcare facilities. Sewer wastewater and sediments were also collected f...

Prevalence and Antibiogram of Gram-negative Bacteria Isolated from Well Water in Ula-Ubie Community, Ahoada West, Nigeria

R. R. Nrior, M. Okpokiri & N. P. Akani · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2020

Antibiotic resistance has become a great global problem. Thus, it has emerged as a public health challenge. The antibiotic susceptibility pattern of bacteria in well water was characterized with a view of determining the level of resistance in the environment. Fifty well water sa...

Potential of Surface Water Gram-negative Bacterial Flora as a Reservoir of Heterogeneous Plasmid and Multi-drug Resistance Phenomenon

Fatema Akter, Md. Ishtiak Rashid, Sourav Biswas, Nazneen Jahan, Zia Uddin Ahmed & M. Hasibur Rahman · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2018

Aims:  Present study highlights the diversity of Gram-negative bacterial community at surface water and their potential as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes. We also explore the potential of this heterogeneous community to host plasmids of diverse origin. Place and Durat...
