Abstract Fecal bacteria are considered to be a potential reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes in the aquatic environment and could horizontally transfer these genes to autochthonous bacteria when carried on transferable and/or mobile genetic elements. Such circulation of resistance genes constitut...
BACKGROUND: The occurrence and prevalence of integrons in clinical microorganisms and their role played in antimicrobial resistance have been well studied recently. As screening and detection of integrons are concerned, current diagnostic methodologies are restricted by significant drawbacks and novel me...
O gene da proteína de nucleocapsídeo (1.230 pb) da estirpe M41 do vírus da bronquite infecciosa (VBI) foi amplificado pelas reações de transcrição reversa e em cadeia da polimerase (RT-PCR) e clonado, em seguida, em dois sistemas; pET28a - Escherichia coli e pFLD -Pichia pastoris. Os produtos reco...
The clonal relationship among avian Escherichia coli strains and their genetic proximity with human pathogenic E. coli, Salmonela enterica, Yersinia enterocolitica and Proteus mirabilis, was determined by the DNA sequencing of the conserved 5' and 3'regions fliC gene (flagellin encoded gene). Among 30 co...
The aim of this work was the construction of a cassette, i.e., a non-replicative molecule formed by linkage of an antibiotic resistance gene and a multiple cloning site. This cassette would allow the cloning and analysis of a wide range of replicons. The aac(6')-lc amikacin gene was isolated and ligated ...
Se investiga la capacidad adherente y hemaglutinante de una cepa de E. COLI 36692 fimbriada y se compara con una cepa de E. COLI UCCSI no fimbriada. Mediante microscopía electrónica se demuestra la fibriación de E. COLI 36692, no observándose estas estructuras en E. COLI UCCSI. Se aísla el ADN extra...
