Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane proteins: Profile analysis and immunogenicity in relation to the antibiotic resistance
2005
Mona I. El-Enbaawy | Ansam M. Salam
To analyze the major outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of the sensitive or resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, the OMPs were separated from the cellular elements by sarcosyl extraction method. OMPs profiles were conducted by SDSpolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Amoxicillin clavulanic acid (AMC) sensitive P.aeruginosa serotype K showed four protein bands; 35.713, 31.159, 26.107 and 22.869 KD. While AMC sensitive P. aeruginosa serotype H showed three bands of 35.713, 27.164 and 23.174 KD. Whereas AMC resistant P. aeruginosa serotype G, that was positive for the blaTEM gene by the PCR, modified its protein pattern. It has five protein bands of 52.142, 38.525, 30.690, 27.164 and 22.569 KD. These findings suggested that blaTEM gene and the outer membrane protein barrier are contributed to the resistance to amoxicillin clavulanic acid in P. aeruginosa. To determine a possible relationship between the resistance of P. aeruginosa and the production of antibodies against its outer membrane protein, antibodies against OMPs of AMC sensitive and resistant P. aeruginosa strains were prepared in mice and evaluated by ELISA. Our results showed that there was no association between immunogenicity of the outer membrane proteins and resistance of P. aeruginosa to antibiotics.

In this study we used one reference Climson University (CU) strain and 3 virulentfield strains isolated from naturally infected chicken and identified as P. Multocida.DNA was extracted from all strains and subjected to restriction endonuclease analysis, using EcoRI, HpaII and Hind III revealing that, great similarity between either the reference or local virulent field isolates. The obtained results indicated that the most differentiable restriction endonuclease enzyme was the Hind III, which showed different band patterns between different strains.

2007
Seham A. El-Zeedy | Hussein K. Eldeen | Jihan M. Badr
A total of 620 egg samples from different species (chickens, ducks and ostriches) and 1615 poultry samples (chickens, ducks, pigeons, quails, turkeys and ostriches) were examined for salmonella infection. 12 salmonella isolates were obtained from the egg samples (1.9%) and 67 isolates from poultry samples (4.1%). Salmonella isolates were serotyped into S. enteritidis (25 isolates), S. typhimurium (17 isolates), S. infantis (12 isolates), S. montivideo (7 isolates), 3 isolates for each of S. rubislaw and S. cerro , 2 isolates for each of S. virginia, S. agona, S. poona, and S. derby and 1 isolate for each of S. sandiago and S. kentucky. The incidence of isolation from different poultry species was discussed in details. Antibiogram of the isolated salmonellae against 10 different antibiotics revealed that norofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, cepheridin and gentamycin gave the highest activity against different salmonella isolates while amoxicillin, tetracycline, and nitrofurantoin showed the highest resistance rate. Pathogenicity of the isolated serovars was tested in chickens. All isolates were found pathogenic with various degree of virulence. SDSPAGE protein analysis for the salmonella isolated form different poultry species revealed 12 protein bands ranged from 22-289 kDa. The differences were insufficient for reliable differentiation between the isolates and accordingly, it could be used beside other molecular techniques in differentiation between the salmonella strains.
