Antibiotic Resistance Profiling of Pathogenic Species from Urinary Tract Infection Patients in Benin.

Staphylococci can cause urinary tract infections (UTIs). These UTIs are among the significant causes of antibiotic resistance and the spread of antibiotic-resistant diseases. The current study is aimed at establishing a resistance profile and determining the pathogenicity of strains isolated from UTI samples collected in Benin.

Susceptibility and Virulence of Isolated from Urinary Tract Infections in Benin.

Enterobacteriaceae represent one of the main families of Gram-negative bacilli responsible for serious urinary tract infections (UTIs). The present study aimed to define the resistance profile and the virulence of Enterobacteriaceae strains isolated in urinary tract infections in Benin. A total of 390 urine samples were collected from patients with UTIs, and Enterobacteriaceae strains were isolated according to standard microbiology methods.

Pathogenicity and Molecular Characterization of Strains Isolated from the Hospital Environment of CHU-Z Abomey-Calavi/Sô-Ava (Benin).

is a major human pathogen present on a third of the healthy population. The bacterium possesses an extensive arsenal of virulence factors. The pathogenicity is linked with high plasticity and its exceptional ability to incorporate foreign genetic material.

Phytochemical composition and biological activities of fruit juice.

is a plant with broad nutraceutical and therapeutic effects and used in the traditional treatment of several ailments. The objective of this work is to investigate the phytochemistry of the fruit juice of on one hand and on other hand to evaluate its antiradical and antibacterial activity. The phytochemical investigation was carried out by tube staining tests of the extract of two types of fruit juice of .

Antibiotics Resistance and Biofilm Formation Capacity of spp. Strains Isolated from Surfaces and Medicotechnical Materials.

spp. is most often implicated in nosocomial infections. The objective of this study is to evaluate the susceptibility to antibiotics and the biofilm formation capacity of staphylococci species isolated from surfaces and medicotechnical materials at the university hospital center of Abomey-Calavi/Sô-Ava in Benin.
