Genotype distribution of hepatitis C virus in the  province of Gaziantep, a 10-year evaluation
Acta Microbiol Immunol Hung. 2023 Oct 11;70(4):348-352. doi: 10.1556/030.2023.02137. Print 2023 Dec 7.ABSTRACTHepatitis C virus (HCV) can cause both acute and chronic hepatitis infections. Gaziantep is located southeast part of Turkey and has a border with Syria. More than 400,000 Syrian refugees live in Gaziantep. The aim of this study was to evaluate distribution of HCV genotypes among Syrian patients and in people who inject drugs.Serum samples form 1,628 individuals (786 female, 842 male) which were sent to our laboratory for genotyping between January 2013 and December 2022, were analyzed retrospectively.

High-risk clonal lineages among extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae from urban and rural stagnant water samples in Tunisia
This study sought to investigate the occurrence and subsequently to characterize extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae from urban and rural stagnant water samples during the wet season (December to February) in several regions of northern Tunisia. From 56 stagnant water samples, 14 ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae were recovered, including 9 Escherichia coli, 3 Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 2 K. oxytoca. Most isolates were multidrug-resistant, with ESBL production primarily encoded by blaCTX-M-15 (n = 8) and blaCTX-M-1 (n = 4) followed by blaCTX-M-55 (n = 1) and blaTEM-26 (n = 1). One K. pneumo...

Molecular characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Raoultella ornithinolytica
In this study, three CR-ROR strains were found to have a higher level of resistance to antibacterial agents and carried multiple antibiotic resistance genes. The CR-ROR strains carrying multiple antibacterial resistant genes require the stringent monitoring to avoid the spread of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains.PMID:38063919 | DOI:10.1556/030.2023.02123 (Source: Acta Microbiologica et Immunologica Hungarica)

Characterization of disinfectant susceptibility profiles among clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii in Ardabil, Iran
This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of four commonly used disinfectants; triclosan, chlorhexidine digluconate, benzalkonium chloride, and formaldehyde against Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. This study also determined the prevalence and association of efflux pumps encoding genes qacE, qacED1, emrA, and aceI with tolerance to disinfectants. A total of 100 A. baumannii isolates were included in the current study. The antimicrobial disinfectants' minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined using an agar dilution method. Genes involved in resistance to disinfectants were investigated by PCR met...
