The antibacterial activity of N. laevis leaves extracted with methanol, hot and cold water were evaluated against medically important bacteria strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus saprophyticus and Enterococcus faecalis. The results showed a remarkable inhibition of the bacteria growth against the tested organisms with Staphylococcus saprophyticus had highest activity (20 mm). In general, all the tested organisms showed a significant activity with the extracts. The conventional antibiotics used against these organisms showed that all the isolates were resistant to augmentin, ceftazidime, cefuroxime, and cloxacillin. The phytochemical analysis of the plants was carried out. The microbial activity of the Newbouldia laevis was due to the presence of various secondary metabolites. The GC-MS analysis showed that the most abundant phytochemical in the extract is linoleoyl chloride (76.3%). Hence, these plants can be used to discover bioactive natural products that may serve as leads in the development of new pharmaceuticals research activities.","PeriodicalId":15045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bacteriology & Parasitology","volume":"12 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77162661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Almost 90% of the rural population of Ethiopia did not practice any alternative water treatment methods which would pose them to high public health risks. The aim of this study was therefore to identify factors of house hold water treatment practice and knowledge in rural kebeles of Degadamot woreda, North West Ethiopia, 2020. Methods: A Community-based cross-sectional study design was conducted in Degadamot woreda, North West Ethiopia, 2020. A Multistage sampling technique was carried out to select 845 sample households. Data were entered into the Epi-Data version 4.1 and analyzed using SPSS Version 20. Binary Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors of house hold water treatment practice and knowledge. Results: In this study, 14% of participants were practicing household water treatment and 28.2% had knowledge on household water treatment practice. Educational status, income earning >600 ETB per month, number of under five children in the household, ways to fetch water and knowledge on HWT were factors significantly associated with household water treatment practice. And educational status, marital status, source of water for drinking, number of containers to store water two, three and above: and place of handling utensils were factors which had significant association with knowledge of house hold water treatment practice. Conclusion: Factors that were significantly associated with household water treatment practice were educational status, income, number of under-five children, ways to fetch drinking water and good knowledge about household water treatment.","PeriodicalId":15045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bacteriology & Parasitology","volume":"24 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87834444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study intended to assess the bacterial profile and drug resistance of isolates of blood stream infection among under- 5 children in Southern Ethiopia. Methods: Retrospectively lab recorded data’s were retrieved to assess the bacterial isolates and rates antibiotic resistance at Hawassa University Comprehensive Specialized Hospital. Results: Of 323 bloods culture performed 116 (35.9%) were positive for potential bacterial BSI. Positivity of blood culture decrease with age, hence neonates blood stream infection stream infection were higher than other age groups (OR, 3; 95% CI 1.5–5.1; p=0.001). The major gram positive isolate CoNS and S. aureus have shown highest level of resistance to penicillin 61.3% and tetracycline 78.8% whereas less level of resistance was reported to Meropenem 6.4%, Ceftriaxone 13% and doxycycline 13%. Although most of gram negatives isolates were resistant for tested antibiotics, K. pneumoniae has shown leaser resistance to cefotaxime and chloramphenicol. Conclusion: A high level of blood stream infection accompanied by high drug resistant isolates was reported. The great burden in neonate than other children was reported. As a result to reduce the burden the hospital administrators need to facilities effective infection prevention and control programmes, effective hygiene practices and well-functioning environment along with educating patient about proper hygiene practices.","PeriodicalId":15045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bacteriology & Parasitology","volume":"242 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80518028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to assess the prevalence of sexually transmitted pathogens in key populations in Senegal. Materials and methods: A retrospective study from January to December 2018 was carried out at the Institute of Social Hygiene in 2 key populations namely Men who have Sex with Men (MSM) and Female Sex Workers (FSW) presented symptoms of STIs. For each patient, blood samples and urethral or vaginal sample were collected. Diagnostic of STIs microorganisms including Treponema pallidum, C. trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Trichomonas vaginalis was performed. Results: Two hundred fourteen patients (173 FSW and 41 MSMS) with STIs symptoms were included in this study. STI diagnosis was confirmed in 176 participants giving an overall STIs rate of 82% (176/214). Among them, 80% (141/176) were FSW and 20% (35/176) were MSM. C. trachomatis was found in 55% of cases (97/176) followed by N. gonorrhoeae (18%; n=32/176), T. vaginalis (15%; n=26/176) and T. Pallidum (12%; n=21/176). Interestingly, C. trachomatis infection was exclusively detected in FSW with a rate of 68.8% (97/141). In addition, C. trachomatis was associated with other STIs agents in 22 cases (23%) namely T. pallidum (5.2%; n=5/97), N. gonorrhoeae (3.1%; n=3/97), and T. vaginalis (14.4%; n=14/97). C. trachomatis was found in all age groups, however, young people (<30 years) seems to be more affected with 58.8% (57/97). Conclusion: This study showed a predominance of C. trachomatis infections among FSW suggesting the importance to consider this STI’s pathogen in the management of key populations in Senegal.","PeriodicalId":15045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bacteriology & Parasitology","volume":"70 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76177948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
