Multidrug-resistant (MDR) organisms are spreading widely and becoming an issue of utmost importance to deal with. In the current study, ten urine samples from diabetic patients suffering from multiple complications, including urinary tract infection (UTI) and nephropathy were investigated. Antibiogram assays of the bacterial isolates from collected samples demonstrated resistance against most of the antibiotics tested. Further studies were conducted to determine the types of resistant bacteria that caused UTI. Analyzing the 16S rDNA sequence and phylogenetic tree, 3 isolates were identified as Escherichia coli, 5 as Klebsiella pneumoniae and the rest 2 as Enterobacter asburiae. The findings of this research indicate the necessity of urgent attention to find an effective alternative drug for treating infections caused by these resistant isolates. Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm.

Isolation And Characterization

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease-which occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. This leads to an increased concentration of glucose in the blood (hyperglycemia). Diabetes mellitus is one of the most challenging health problems in India. The present study was investigated for isolation and characterization of antibiotic-resistant bacteria from urinary tract infection on diabetic mellitus patients. The 118 diabetic urine samples were collected and UTI bacteria using HiChrome UTI Agar was isolated. The diabetic UTI isolates were confirmed as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Proteus mirabilis and Klebsiella aerogenes based on morphological and biochemical characteristics. Our study identified that almost all the bacteria were highly sensitive to Cefoperazone/Sulbactam (75/30 mcg), Gentamicin (10 mcg), Meropenem (30 mcg), Piperacillin/Tazobactam (100/10 mcg) and Nitrofurantoin (100 mcg) antibiotics. Interestingly Klebsiella aerogenes alone was found to be more resistant to the entire antibiotics used in this study. The antibiotic resistant Klebsiella aerogenes is one of the biggest treats to human health, antibiotic resistance occurs naturally, but misuse of antibiotics in humans is accelerating the process.

Multidrug Resistant Bacteria

Involvement of multidrug resistant bacteria in causing community acquired infection is very serious public health issue. The main objective of our study was to determine the prevalence of multidrug resistant bacteria in causing community acquired urinary tract infection. In this study we cultured the 384 mid stream urine samples collected aseptically from the patients attending outpatient department of Seti zonal hospital and having no past history of hospitalization. The organisms isolated were identified by using conventional biochemical tests and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby Bauer disc diffusion technique. Out of total 384 samples 98 (25.52%) samples showed significant bacterial growth. The most prevalent bacterium isolated was Escherichia coli. 42.86% of the bacteria isolated were found to be multidrug resistant (MDR). The involvement of such large numbers of multidrug resistant bacteria in causing community acquired urinary tract infection is very serious issue and cannot be neglected. And some abrupt initiatives should be taken by the responsible authorities to improve or at least avoid the further worsening of the situation.Nepal Journal of Biotechnology.

Objective: determine the frequency of urinary tract infections associated with MDR bacteria, characteristics patients with such infections and the mortality rate associated in Hospital ISSSTECALI during 2015-2016. Design: Descriptive, observational, analytic, transversal Methods: We collected data from clinical files of each patient that had been diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and had an uroculture of 10x105 CFU of bacteria with a multidrug-resistant profile. It included, gender, age, comorbidities, predisposing risk factors, obtained isolation, sensibility pattern, days of stay and proper technique of culture. We calculated frequencies and rates. Results: During January 2015- November 2016 a total of 2401 urocultures were solicited, we isolated bacteria in 123 of them (5.12%). 94 urocultures were included, 71% of the cultures were from women with a median age of 68.14 years; comorbidities: Hypertension (50%), diabetes (41.5%), chronic renal disease (14.9%), history of stroke and bed-rest. An average of 14.15 days of stay was calculated. They all had a urinary catheter. Of the total of urocultures obtained, 54 urocultures demonstrated bacteria growth with a MDR phenotype (attack rate: 0.43 cases/1000 discharges) Escherichia coli was isolated in 26 (48.14%) cultures; Pseudomona aeruginosa 7.4%; and Klebsiella pneumonia 5.5%; its mechanism of resistance was calculated according to the reported phenotype on the antimicrobiogram, demonstrating resistance to more than two family of antibiotics. A mortality rate of 21.3% was calculated of which the direct cause was related to the infective process (rate: 0.23 deaths/1000 discharges). Conclusion: the isolation of bacteria with a multidrug-resistant profile is not very common; however, they generate a high morbimortality index and a great weight in resources to our unit. Recommendations: reinforcement of programs that encourage rational use of antibiotics as well as the control of nosocomial infections should be employed in the hospital.

1. An antibactericidal factor in the serum of patients with urinary-tract infection could be partially purified by absorbing the serum with the homologous organism and treating the absorption complex with a weak acid buffer. 2. Material obtained in this way contained mainly immunoglobulin G. 3. Lipopolysaccharide extracted from the homologous organism was as effective as whole bacterial cells in removing the factor from patient's serum.
