Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) in Jordan: Prevalence of urovirulence genes and antibiotic resistance

2018-03-21

Abstract excerpt

This study examined the prevalence of urovirulence genes in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) isolates obtained from Jordanian patients. In addition, antibiotic susceptibility profile of the isolates was also examined. Isolates (n = 227) were subjected to PCR detection of vat, fyuA, chuA, yfcV, sivH, shiA, sisA, sisB and eco274 genes. The UPEC virulence genes prevalence rates were shiA (92%), sisA (72%), eco27...
