Comparison between the BACTEC MGIT 960 system and the agar proportion method for susceptibility testing of multidrug resistant tuberculosis strains in a high burden setting of South Africa

Said, Halima Mohammed; Kock, Marleen M.; Ismail, Nazir Ahmed; Baba, Kamaldeen A.; Omar, Shaheed Vally; Osman, Ayman Gassim Elamin; Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed; Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen (BioMed Central, 2012-12-22)

BACKGROUND: The increasing problem of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) [ie resistant to at least isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (RIF)] is becoming a global problem. Successful treatment outcome for MDR-TB depends ...
Evaluation of the GenoType (R) MTBDRsl assay for susceptibility testing of second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs

Said, Halima Mohammed; Kock, Marleen M.; Ismail, Nazir Ahmed; Baba, Kamaldeen A.; Omar, Shaheed Vally; Osman, Ayman Gassim Elamin; Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed; Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen (International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, 2012-01)

BACKGROUND: The GenoType® MTBDRsl assay (Hains, Lifesciences, Germany) is a new rapid assay for detection of resistance to second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs. METHOD: The MTBDRsl assay was evaluated on 342 MDR-TB isolates ...
In vitro activity of tigecycline against clinical isolates of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii complex in Pretoria, South Africa

Ahmed, Nahid H.; Baba, Kamaldeen A.; Clay, Cornelius G.; Lekalakala, M. Ruth; Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed (BioMed Central, 2012-05-03)

BACKGROUND: The presence of multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii raises a big therapeutic challenge in our hospital. Tigecycline, a new glycylcycline with expanded broad spectrum of activity against multi-drug ...
Molecular basis of virulence in clinical isolates of Escherichia coli and Salmonella species from a tertiary hospital in the Eastern Cape, South Africa

Bisi-Johnson, Mary A.; Obi, Chikwelu Larry; Vasaikar, Sandeep D.; Baba, Kamaldeen A.; Hattori, Toshio (BioMed Central, 2011-06-10)

BACKGROUND: Apart from localized gastrointestinal infections, Escherichia coli and Salmonella species are major causes of systemic disease in both humans and animals. Salmonella spp. cause invasive infections such as ...
Molecular characterization and second-line antituberculosis drug resistance patterns of multidrug-resistant mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from the Northern Region of South Africa

Said, Halima Mohammed; Kock, Marleen M.; Ismail, Nazir Ahmed; Mphahlele, Matsie Theodora; Baba, Kamaldeen A.; Omar, Shaheed Vally; Osman, Ayman Gassim Elamin; Hoosen, Anwar Ahmed; Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen (American Society for Microbiology, 2012-09)

Despite South Africa being one of the high-burden multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) countries, information regarding the population structure of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains is limited from ...
