OBJECTIVES: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a heterogeneous group of microorganisms. Their clinical relevance and treatment differs significantly upon NTM species, which makes identification at this level crucial. Additionally, inaccurate diagnosis can lead to therapeutic approaches consistent with Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection which are usefulness.In the present study different molecular methods w...

Exploitation of a link between antibacterial agent-resistance and biofilm-forma...

Objectives: In recent years nosocomial infections have gained growing importance. Among their etiological agents are “classical” pathogens such as S.aureus and also emergent pathogens, previously neglected, such as nontuberculous mycobacteria (MTM). The ability to resist to antibacterial agents, such as antibiotics and disinfectants, is shared by all of them. Here we aim to establish a link between bacterial vi...

Exploring a link between pathogens structure's and resistance to

In recent years healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) infections have gained growing importance. Among their etiological agents are classical (e.g. K. pneumoniae, S. aureus) and emergent pathogens, previously neglected, such as nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). The ability to resist to antibacterial agents, such as antibiotics and disinfectants, is shared by all of them. Here we aim to establish a link betwe...
