Promiscuous Plasmid Implicated in a CRE Outbreak
In Virginia, a nosocomial outbreak of infections caused by carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae was linked to wide horizontal transmission of a plasmid. The recent emergence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) has caused great concern worldwide. Perhaps even more worrisome is the report of an outbreak of plasmid-mediated CRE infections. When two cases of infection caused by two different strains of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella were identified in August 2007 at the University of Virginia Health System, the institution began screening all extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Enterobacteriaceae for carbapenemase production. During the next 8 months, 16 CRE strains representing 4 genera and 6 species were identified from 14

Rabies Symptoms in Humans
Rabies is a viral form of disease that can cause inflammation of the brain (encephalitis) in mammals and birds. It is a zoonotic disease meaning that it is transmitted by animals but can also affect humans, and it is normally transmitted through being bitten by an infected animal. The symptoms can be very severe and it is normally fatal if prophylaxis is not administered before the victim shows signs of severe diseases. It is often associated with dogs, for which one of the main symptoms is foaming at the mouth. This is an accurate association as in fact 97% of

Lysine for Cold Sores
Cold sores are an irritation that can be unsightly, uncomfortable, potentially embarrassing and even hamper your romantic chances. As such, it is fortunate that a range of treatments and remedies exist and among these are lysine for cold sores treatment. Here we will look at what cold sores are, how lysine can help treat them, and how you should go about utilising it if you decide to. Cold Sores Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus – in other words the same virus that causes the STI herpes. This then stays dormant in our body with no visible

Folliculitis – Cure Your Folliculitis
Folliculitis describes an infection of one or several hair follicles which can occur anywhere around the body though is most common on the neck, axilla and groin regions. This will result in a red rash across the skin, pimples around the hair follicle, crustiness or itchiness. Usually this will occur as a result of the staphylococcus aureus bacteria which is the same bacteria that causes the MRSA ‘hospital bug’ which infects the follicle usually after it has been damaged. This damage in turn can be caused by friction caused by clothing, insect bites, blockages, incorrect shaving, tight braids that pull
