Le diagnostic bactériologique au laboratoire comprend plusieurs aspects. Nous faisons ici un récapitulatif des différentes techniques pouvant être utilisées dans le diagnostic direct et indirect.
Staphylococcus aureusis a gram-positive bacterium that can cause infections in almost anyone. The problem with the bacterium arises when S. aureus becomes resistant to methicillin. The bacterium's resistance to Methicillin and other... more
Abstract- This study was carried out to isolate and identify bacterial flora from German cockroaches (Blattella germanica) collected from dwellings and health facilities in Tebessa city. A total of 187 bacteria were isolated from 46... more
The MAP-LC3 system regulates the intracellular formation of autophagy-associated vacuoles. These vacuoles contain the LC3 protein; thus it has been utilized as a marker to identify autophagosomes. The aim of our study was to investigate... more
Though the promotion of resistant bacteria worldwide has mainly been attributed to the injudicious use of many antibiotics, the role of non-antimicrobial drugs used in the clinical management of pathological conditions of non-infectious... more
Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) are enzymes produced by gram-negative rods capable of hydrolyzing broad-spectrum cephalosporins and monobactams. Most belong to the Enterobacteriae family, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae and... more
Aims: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of paragonimiasis and aspergillosis in patients suspected of pulmonary tuberculosis in Yaounde. Study Design: Cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Participants... more
Article type: Original Article Background: Multi-drug resistant strains of Acinetobacter spp. have created therapeutic problems worldwide. The objective of this study was to detect integrons in Acinetobacter spp. isolates from Ventilator... more
In this study, Enterococcus faecalis was isolated from100 samples of apparently healthy and diseased cultured Tilapia fish (Oreochromis niloticus) collected from 4 different fish farms at different localities in Kafr El-Sheikh governorate... more
[Diphtheria in Geneva at the end of the 19th century: the emergence of bacteriology and the use of serotherapy] At the end of the 19th century, diphtheria was one of the infectious diseases striking children the most. With the... more
Background: Rotavirus infection is the most common cause of severe diarrhea in young children and infants worldwide. Epidemiological knowledge concerning rotaviruses among infants and children is critical for the development of effective... more
Between 1880 and 1920 the medical quest to unearth the causes of disease saw two pathbreaking discoveries. One was the bacteriological revolution-the identification of specific germs as causal agents of specific diseases (anthrax,... more
Introduction DNA-based surveillance of bacterial diseases has been using pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) since 1996. Currently, the international surveillance network (PulseNet international) is turning toward whole genome... more
Article type: Research Article Background: More than 30 bacterial, viral, and parasitic pathogens have the potential for transfusion (sexually transmitted), an infectious group called sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Atofobium... more
Background and Aims: The type IV Pilin is an important colonization factor for opportunistic pathogens of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which plays a role in the formation of biofilms and binding to the host cells. Each type of Pilin is coded... more
The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial activities of calcium ions and other cross-linking agents of alginate dressings, as well as their compatibility with commonly used topical antimicrobials. The antimicrobial... more
Threats of Acinetobacter baumannii, a Gram-negative and multi-drug resistant bacterium, to the public health have recently received great attention worldwide. This is because the high incidence rate of the bacterial infections and the... more

It is believed that an important criterion for a potential probiotic strain is that it is capable of adhering to mucosal surfaces in the human gastrointestinal tract. The purpose of this study was to investigate a possible relationship... more
Background : The pathologies classified as urinary tract infections (UTI) can have a deleterious effect on patients who have undergone a renal transplantation. Often recurrent UTIs will occur, leading to high morbidity, failure of the... more
Threats of Acinetobacter baumannii, a Gram-negative and multi-drug resistant bacterium, to the public health have recently received great attention worldwide. This is because the high incidence rate of the bacterial infections and the... more
The roles of group C and F streptococci in causing endemic pharyngitis are still controversial, although group C streptococci are implicated in the outbreaks of pharyngitis and associated disorders. The aim of this study was to determine... more
Background: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is an opportunistic pathogen and a predominant cause of life-threatening nosocomial infections. Drug resistance in S. aureus is attributed to production of biofilm, which is controlled largely... more
