376 results about "Haemophilus" patented technology

Haemophilus is a genus of Gram-negative, pleomorphic, coccobacilli bacteria belonging to the family Pasteurellaceae. While Haemophilus bacteria are typically small coccobacilli, they are categorized as pleomorphic bacteria because of the wide range of shapes they occasionally assume. These organisms inhabit the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract, mouth, vagina, and intestinal tract. The genus includes commensal organisms along with some significant pathogenic species such as H. influenzae—a cause of sepsis and bacterial meningitis in young children—and H. ducreyi, the causative agent of chancroid. All members are either aerobic or facultatively anaerobic. This genus has been found to be part of the salivary microbiome.

Specific and universal probes and amplification primers to rapidly detect and identify common bacterial pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes from clinical specimens for routine diagnosis in microbiology laboratories

The present invention relates to DNA-based methods for universal bacterial detection, for specific detection of the common bacterial pathogens Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus mirabilis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis as well as for specific detection of commonly encountered and clinically relevant bacterial antibiotic resistance genes directly from clinical specimens or, alternatively, from a bacterial colony. The above bacterial species can account for as much as 80% of bacterial pathogens isolated in routine microbiology laboratories. The core of this invention consists primarily of the DNA sequences from all species-specific genomic DNA fragments selected by hybridization from genomic libraries or, alternatively, selected from data banks as well as any oligonucleotide sequences derived from these sequences which can be used as probes or amplification primers for PCR or any other nucleic acid amplification methods. This invention also includes DNA sequences from the selected clinically relevant antibiotic resistance genes. With these methods, bacteria can be detected (universal primers and/or probes) and identified (species-specific primers and/or probes) directly from the clinical specimens or from an isolated bacterial colony. Bacteria are further evaluated for their putative susceptibility to antibiotics by resistance gene detection (antibiotic resistance gene specific primers and/or probes). Diagnostic kits for the detection of the presence, for the bacterial identification of the above-mentioned bacterial species and for the detection of antibiotic resistance genes are also claimed. These kits for the rapid (one hour or less) and accurate diagnosis of bacterial infections and antibiotic resistance will gradually replace conventional methods currently used in clinical microbiology laboratories for routine diagnosis. They should provide tools to clinicians to help prescribe promptly optimal treatments when necessary. Consequently, these tests should contribute to saving human lives, rationalizing treatment, reducing the development of antibiotic resistance and avoid unnecessary hospitalizations.

Methods, compositions, formulations, and uses of cellulose and acrylic-based polymers

Compositions, formulations, and methods for the treatment or prevention, or decreasing the frequency of transmission of a virus (such as human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), Herpes Simplex virus type 1 (HSV1), or Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV2), or other virus), or a bacterial infection (such as Trichomonas vaginalis, Neisseris gonorrhoeae Haemopholus ducreyl, or Chlamydia trachomatis, or other bacterial species), or a fungal infection, using an anionic cellulose- or acrylic-based oligomer, polymer, or copolymer. The present invention also includes administering a therapeutically effective amount of said oligomer, polymer, or copolymer, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent, thereof. The invention relies on the unique biochemical substitution of the cellulose or acrylic backbone such that the resultant molecule can remain molecularly dispersed in solution (or gel or other formulation) and mostly dissociated over a wide range of physiological microenvironments, such as the low pH found within the vaginal lumen, preferably from a pH of 14 to below 3.5. These specific substitutions also impart on the resultant molecule potent antiviral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal properties. In addition, these compositions can be used as general disinfectants for human use such as in contact lens solutions, mouthwashes, toothpastes, suppositories, or as more generalized disinfectants found in soaps, household cleaning products, paints, water treatments modalities, or can be incorporated into cosmetic, and can be used as vehicles for drug delivery, an adjuvant in a therapeutic formulation, or as a preservative. These compounds can be delivered in a liquid or solid dosage form and can be incorporated into barrier devices such as condoms, diaphragms, or cervical caps, to help prevent the transmission of STDs. The compounds of this invention can also be used in combination therapies with other classes of antiviral, antibacterial, or antifungal agent having similar or differing mechanisms of action including, but not limited to, anionic or cationic polymers, copolymers, or oligomers, surfactants, protease inhibitors, DNA or RNA polymerase inhibitors (including reverse transcriptase inhibitors), fusion inhibitors, cell wall biosynthesis inhibitors, integrase inhibitors, or virus or bacterial attachment inhibitors.

Porcine streptococcus disease and haemophilus parasuis disease combined inactivate vaccine and preparation method thereof

The invention discloses a porcine streptococcus disease and haemophilus parasuis disease combined inactivate vaccine and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: a, respectively carrying out enrichment culture on a porcine streptococcus strain, a haemophilus parasuis strain and a haemophilus parasuis strain to obtain a porcine streptococcus strain bacterial solution, a haemophilus parasuis strain bacterial solution and a haemophilus parasuis strain bacterial solution; b, respectively adding a formaldehyde solution into the porcine streptococcus strain bacterial solution, the haemophilus parasuis strain bacterial solution and the haemophilus parasuis strain bacterial solution, and inactivating; c, mixing the collected porcine streptococcus strain bacterial solution, the haemophilus parasuis strain bacterial solution and the haemophilus parasuis strain bacterial solution, adding Tween-80 for preparing a water phase, preparing white oil, Span-80 and aluminium stearate into an oil phase, mixing the water phase with the oil phase to prepare a uniform emulsion, i.e. an oil emulsion inactivating vaccine; and 4, sub-packaging the oil emulsion inactivating vaccine. The porcine streptococcus disease and haemophilus parasuis disease combined inactivate vaccine can effectively prevent the porcine streptococcus disease and haemophilus parasuis disease, does not have hidden danger of scattering viruses and is safe and reliable; and the immunization is realized by one vaccine, thus the cost is reduced.
