Attachment of and biofilm formation by Enterobacter sakazakii on stainless steel and enteral feeding tubes

Article Abstract:

A study to determine the influence of temperature and availability of nutrients on attachment to and biofilm formation on stainless steel and enteral feeding tubes by Enterobacter sakazakii is presented. The significance of temperature control in reconstituted infant formula preparation and storage areas in restricting the attachment and biofilm formation by E. sakazakii and the role of nutrient availability in processes resulting in biofilm formation are confirmed.

Impact of three ampicillin dosage regimens on selection of ampicillin resistance in Enterobacteriaceae and excretion of [bla.sub.TEM] genes in swine feces

Article Abstract:

A study to assess the impact of three ampicillin dosage regimens on ampicillin resistance among Enterobacteriaceae from swine feces by phenotypic and genotypic methods was conducted. Results found that fecal [bla.sub.TEM] gene quantification provides a sensitive tool to evaluate the impact of ampicillin administration on the selection of ampicillin resistance in the digestive microflora and its distribution in the environment.

Dosage and administration, Ampicillin
