Mr. Editor We have read with special attention and interest the article by Condemayta et al (2018), where they present the results of an epidemiological study on the prevalence of infection by the intestinal parasite "Balantidium coli" and the risk factors associated with its transmission. in humans and pigs in two populations of the Acora District, province and Department of Puno, Peru. In general, we agree with the content of the article. However, we wish to comment on the taxonomic and systematic status of "Balantidium coli", and the corresponding nomenclature of the enteroparasitic disease it causes, which we consider require updating in light of the new evidence and findings presented in the scientific literature of the area, especially those of the molecular type. In this sense, it should first be indicated that the genus Balantidium belongs to the Phylum Ciliophora (Class Litostom...

El Gen de la Poliposis Coli Adenomatosa (APC), es un gen supresor tumoral que se encuentra en el cromosoma 5q21. Tiene una secuencia de 2843 aminoácidos con un peso de 312 kD. La mutación de este gen APC ocurre en los estadíos tempranos de la mayoría de cánceres colo-rectales esporádicos; y hasta en un 30% de las poliposis adenomatosas familiares. La falta del APC determinará una migración inadecuada de las células mucosas del colon y su acumulación para la formación de pólipos; lo que marca una etapa en la carcinogénesis. Un estudio adecuado en grupos predispuestos puede llevar a la quimioprevención y/o tratamiento precoz de estos pólipos.

Carcass contamination with E. coli O157:H7, the etiological agent of Acute Diarrheal Disease (ADD) during slaughter is the primary route for contamination of minced beef. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of generic E. coli biotype 1 and E. coli O157:H7 in cattle slaughtered in processing plants in the department of Atlántico. In total, 224 bovine carcasses from processing plants in four municipalities were analyzed. The samples were processed in the Public Health Laboratory of the department of Atlántico. E. coli O157:H7 were determined by the VIDAS UP method, E. coli O157 (including H7) (ECPT) and biotype 1 E. coli using TBX agar (Oxoid), ISO 16649-2: 2000 method. The prevalence of E. coli O157:H7 was 0.45% and of generic E. coli biotype 1 was 0.89% in samples with E. coli biotype 1 counts >100 CFU/cm2. In 54% of the carcasses with the presence of E. coli, the ...

Diarrhea is the most common sign of gastrointestinal disease in young primates kept in captivity. The study aimed to isolate and identify bacterial species present in young Aotus with diarrhoea. The animals were reared in captivity for experimental purposes. Faecal samples were collected using rectal swabs from 78 monkeys of 1 to 7 months old of A. nancymae (n=65) and A. vociferans (n=13) with diarrhoea, and 29 apparently healthy monkeys of 1 month old of A. nancymae (n=21) and A. vociferans (n=8) in the period 2002 to 2005. In the healthy group was most commonly identified E. coli, followed by Proteus vulgaris, P. mirabilis and Citrobacter freundii. A similar result was obtained in the group with diarrhea, plus Klebsiella oxytoca and Enterobacter aerogenes. Serotypes of enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) identified in the group with diarrhea were seven: O158, O142, O86, O125, O126, O55, an...

The use of quinolones for the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI) has increased dramatically, a fact that has led to the emergence of resistant strains of pathogen. The aim of the study was to determine the profiles and molecular mechanisms of quinolone-resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains. For this, 3 sensitive strains of E. coli uropathogenic and 58 quinolone-resistant strains were used in the antimicrobial sensitivity with the disk diffusion method for nalidixic acid (W), ciprofloxacin (Cip), levofloxacin (Lvx), norfloxacin (Nfx) and moxifloxacin (Mxf). For molecular tests were used polymerase chain reaction (PCR), restriction fragments length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing of gyr A gene. Excel, Blastn and ClustalX programs were used for data analysis. Uropathogenic E. coli strains showed two major patterns: 25,90% resisted W and 43,10% resisted WCipNorLvxMxf. ...

La creciente insensibilidad de las enterobacterias a los antibióticos es un problema que está surgiendo en todo el mundo. El objetivo de este estudio es describir la resistencia bacteriana de Escherichia coli a los antibióticos. Para llevar a cabo este propósito, se realizó una revisión sistemática de artículos científicos utilizando palabras clave relacionadas con la resistencia antibiótica de E. coli, tanto en PubMed, donde se encontraron 9667 resultados, como en Scielo, con 13 resultados, y en Google Académico, con 16400 resultados. Tras la revisión, se seleccionaron un total de 16 artículos científicos para su análisis. Los resultados de esta revisión indican que un 69% de los artículos mencionan que las cepas de E. coli son las más comunes en las muestras evaluadas, mientras que un 25% hace referencia a otras cepas bacterianas, como Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphyloc...

The aim if this study was to characterize strains of E. coli isolated from Rattus norvegicus belonging to a level 1 animal facility. Faecal samples were taken from 13 rats. Five colonies were randomly selected from the primary growth of the culture of each sampled individual. Biochemical tests were performed and the pathotype and phylogroup were established in the strains that were identified as E. coli by means of the PCR technique. In addition, tests for biofilm formation and antimicrobial susceptibility were performed. Results showed that 65% (26/40) of the isolated strains corresponded to E. coli and all clustered in phylogroup B2. Six of the E. coli strains were resistant to nitrofurantoin (23%), four were resistant to ampicillin (15%), and three strains were resistant to cefozolin (11%). None showed the formation of biofilms, nor the amplification of genes related to any pathotype....

Sepsis occurs in the presence of an infectious focus; in this case by Escherichia coli (E. coli), that toxins can cause severe damage to the organism's functionality and morphology, being worsened in patients with diseases that affect the immune system; as is this case in the presence of hematological malignancy. A 42-year-old female patient with a diagnosis of T-NK non-Hodgkin lymphoma presented with a necrotic plaque on the palate, temperature above 38 ° C, respiratory rate exceeding 20 breaths per minute, and heart rate exceeding 90 beats per minute. , on examination of a positive pharyngeal culture for E. coli, negative urine culture, confirming a pharyngeal infectious starting point; Treat with amikacin endovenously for 7 days with good response to antibiotic therapy. An infrequent case is reported for this type of bacteria in the oral area and a review of the subject.

In this study, a glassy borosilicate compound was synthesized using recycled glass and natural clays. Even though glass recycling is the generally accepted standard practice for managing glass waste, fine fractions of container soda-lime glass or cullet of other compositions are still disposed of in landfills. Thus, advanced upcycled products that offer greater economic motivation for implementation in industry may be the key to success, but these are frequently linked to alternative methods of product synthesis. Here, a simple and facile route of borosilicate compound production has been synthesized and characterized. The physicochemical characterization of the compounds was carried out to determine their properties and the antibacterial efficacy of the synthesized compound against Escherichia coli (E. coli) was investigated. The structural and spectroscopic characteristics were identif...

The study aimed to evaluate the presence of E. coli O157 (rfb O157 gene) in young alpacas (Vicugna pacos) with and without diarrhea, and the genes that codify their main factors of virulence such as intimin (eae gene), Shiga toxin 1 (gene Stx1) and Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2 gene). Strains of E. coli from a previous study in Puno, Peru were used. A total of 55 and 52 strains of E. coli from young alpacas with and without diarrhea respectively were used. Strains were processed by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique. Both groups resulted negative for the presence of E. coli O157. In the group of alpacas without diarrhea, 7 strains were positive for the gene eae and 4 for Stx2. In the group of alpacas with diarrhea 2 strains were positive for the genes eae and Stx1, 1 for eae and Stx2, 5 for eae, 1 for Stx1 and 5 for Stx2. The survey did not identify the presence of serogroup E. coli O15...
