Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common disease and cause of death globally. The aim of the study is investigation and detection of some bacterial interfering with CRC occurrence and progression. The study conducted between September 2022 till February 2023, a total of 50 specimens were collected from confirmed CRC patients. In addition, 50 stool specimens were collected from Healthy volunteers, considers as control group. Isolation and identification of bacteria in all collected specimens were done by using cultural and differential media (blood agar, macconkey agar and Pfizer agar), as well as the VITEK- 2 compact system. The bacterial species, in the specimens of control were ( Escherichia coli 50 (86.20%), Klebsiella Pneumonia 3(5.17%), Salmonella typhi 2(3.44%), Staphylococcus aureus 1(1.72%), Proteus mirabilis 1(1.72%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1(1.72%), while in the specimens of CRC and polyp were (Escherichia coli 30(38.69%), Streptococcus uberis 6(7.79%), Enterobacter cloacae 4(5.19%), Proteus mirabilis 11(14.28), Streptococcus constellatus pharyneis 1(1.29%), Micrococcus luteus 1(1.29%), Staphlococcus pseudintermedius 1(1.29%), Streptococcus thoraltensis 1(1.29%), Citrobacter freundii 1(1.29%), Streptoccus mutans 1(1.29%), Enterococcus faecium 5(6.49%), Enterococcus faecalis 4(5.19%), Granulicatella elegans 1(1.29%), Enterococcus gallinarum 2(2.59%), Serratia marcescens 1(1.29%), Streptococcus sangunis 1(1.29%), Staphylococcus lentus 1(1.29%), Comamons testosteroni 1(1.29%), Morganella morganii 1(1.29%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1(1.29%), Klebsiella pneumonia 2(2.59%). The bacteria which has been shown to be associated and more abundance in the specimens of CRC tissues are Escherichia.coli 30(38.96%), Streptococcus uberis 6(7.79%), Enterobacter cloacae 4(5.19%), Enterococcus faecium 5(6.49%), Enterococcus faecalis 4(5.19%). Cell-line culture techniques for the five species showed a cellular viability, sequentially Streptocccus uberis (16.12%), Enterococcus faecium (16.39%), Entreococcus faecalis (9.48%), Enterobacter cloacae (15.11%) and Escherichia coli (17.61%). The results statistically studied by using SPSS, which showed excellent or (highly) significant (p-value is in the range of 0.001).
The number of infections caused by microorganisms is increasing significantly over the last few years. A total of 140 patients admitted to the central teaching hospital of pediatrics from the 1st of Jun 2017 to 31 October 2017. The Clinical samples was processed from culture and sensitivity testing. Antibiotic discs used for gram negative isolates. The most prevalent gram negative isolates included Escherichia coli 63 (45.0 %), Pseudomonas spp. 21 (15.0 %), Klebsiella spp. 19 (13.6 %) predominantly. Escherichia coli were the most prevalent isolates from urine 45 (71.4 %), Klebsiella spp. 11 (57.9 %) and Enterobacter spp. 11 (68.8 %) followed by Escherichia coli 10 (15.9 %) predominant from blood. 68 (48.6 %) of specimens were urine, 47 (33.
... Show MoreUropathogenic Escherichia coli is the main cause of urinary tract infections, the ability of this bacteria to cause urinary tract infections is related to a variety of virulence factors that enhance colonization and evade the immune response, one of these virulence factors is cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 toxin which converts the glutamine residue to glutamic acid to activated GTPase Rho family. The study was meant to find out the prevalence rate of the cnf1 gene in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from Iraqi patients. Conventional laboratory methods were used for primary bacterial identification and molecular methods were used to confirm bacterial identity and gene detection. Escherichia coli was identified in 89/165 (53.93%) of th

Show MoreBacterial contamination of AL-Habania and AL-Tharthar reservoirs were studied during the period from February 2001 to January 2002, samples were collected from four stations in AL-Habania reservoir (AL-Warrar, AL-Theban regulator, middle of the reservoir and the fourth was towards AL-Razzaza reservoir) and from two stations at AL-Tharthar reservoir (Ein AL-Hilwa and the middle of the reservoir). Coliform bacteria, faecal Coliforms, Streptococci, faecal Streptococci and total count of bacteria were used as parameters of bacterial contamination in waters of both reservoirs through calculating the most probable number. Highest count of Coliform bacteria (15000 cell/100ml) was recorded at Ein AL-Hilwa and lowest count at AL-Theban regulator

transmitted diseases is broad and includes
bacterial, viral and protozoa infection.
Large number of infected people goes
untreated because of symptomatic or
unrecognized infections.
Patients and methods: Forty five
patients was complaining from infertility
(primary or secondary), consulting
Kammal El-Sammari Hospital for
infertility from May - 2008 to February -
2009. Control group consisted of twenty
fertile women that consulting private clinic
for checking. Four swabs were taken from
each woman in two groups. Two swabs
were taken from posterior fornix of the
vagina (High vaginal swab) and the last
two were taken from endocervical canal.
