“…These findings corroborate with the study by Gehan et al (2011) who also reported that high sensitivity of Amikacin followed by Imipenem and all isolates of P. aeruginosa showed high resistance against Amoxicillin. In some studies, the Imipenem was found more sensitive against P. aeruginosa (Ronald et al, 1998;Neely and Holder, 1999). In the present study, 93.2% P. aeruginosa isolates showed resistance against Gentamycin.…”

“…Estes resultados confirmam sua maior virulência e não surpreendem, uma vez que isolados clínicos freqüentemente se mostram resistentes inclusive aos antimicrobianos de utilização terapêutica. 29 Concentrações inibitórias mínimas de aproximadamente 8000 μg/mL para S. aureus já foram evidenciadas para o óleo essencial das folhas de S. graveolens Weed. 30 Entretanto, a CBM foi muito superior à encontrada neste estudo para o óleo essencial das folhas S. crassiflorus, o que sugere que este possui ação bacteriostática e bactericida.…”

Recebido em 20/4/07; aceito em 3/12/07; publicado na web em 24/7/08 COMPOSITION AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF THE ESSENTIAL OILS OF Senecio crassiflorus var. crassiflorus. The essential oils of leaves, aerial and underground stems of Senecio crassiflorus var. crassiflorus were extracted by hydrodistillation and their analyses were performed by GC/MS. Qualitative and quantitative differences have been found between the analyzed parts. The main compounds of the essentials oils of the leaves were found to be oxygenated sesquiterpenes, while the oils from the aerial and underground stems showed sesquiterpene hydrocarbons as major constituents. Furthermore, the essential oils were tested against Staphylocccus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus. The essential oil of the leaves was shown to be the most active.

“…Antibiotic resistance can emerge after prolonged antibiotic consumption, and the organisms that are resistant to one drug are likely to become resistant to others. Cross-resistance and genetic loci are important factors in this problem (Neely and Holder, 1999). The length of hospitalization is another factor for drug resistance in bacteria (Oncul, 2002;Ozkurt et al, 2005;Savas et al, 2004).…”

Burn patients face an obviously high risk for infections due to the immunocompromising effects of their injury. This study aimed to detect and identify bacteria isolated from patients and hospital environment in the burn unit and determine their antibiogram pattern in response to commonly used antimicrobial agents; in order to give recommendations for management of bacterial infections and drug-resistance. Materials of this study were 100 samples of burn wounds and multiple swab samples of different hospital environments. One hundred and twelve isolates were analyzed, from which there was a single agent in the majority of cases (73.3%). Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most common isolate (32.2%), followed by Enterobacter spp. (16.9%), coagulase-negative staphylococci (12.5%), Acinetobacter spp. (11.7%), Klebsiella spp. (8.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (7.2%), -hemolytic streptococci (4.4%), and others (6.2%). The most commonly detected isolate from hospital environment was P. aeruginosa (35%) followed by Enterobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., coagulase-negative staphylococci. P. aeruginosa was the most resistant to third-and fourth-generation cephalosporins (100%), whereas other gram-negative bacteria were resistant to ciprofloxacin and cephalosporin (70 to 100%). Restriction in the abuse of antibiotics and establishment of an infection control unit will help lower the incidence of infection.
