Background And Objectives: With the increase in immunosuppressed patients and antimicrobial misuse, species have risen as opportunistic pathogens in hospitalized patients. The present study aimed at comparing chromogenic media, automated identification cards versus MALDI-TOF as the gold standard method for identification of different species and determining minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of different antibiotics by broth microdilution method (BMD) to suggest recommendations for treatment.
Materials And Methods: The study included 30 species isolates recovered from normally sterile sites of the human body and were subjected to identification by MALDI-TOF, Vitek-2c, and HiCrome Bacillus Agar.
Background: Several SARS-CoV-2 variants with increased transmissibility and/or potential immune escape have emerged and rapidly spread worldwide. Ongoing surveillance analyses are performed worldwide to designate new variants of concern (VOC) of coronavirus.
Main Text: This report identifies the first Egyptian patient with a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant.
