43 results about "Vancomycin resistant" patented technology

A vancomycin resistant staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) infection is caused by bacteria. These bacteria are resistant to the antibiotic medicine vancomycin. The infection can spread easily from person to person.

Methods And Compositions Including Diagnostic Kits For The Detection of Staphylococcus Aureus

Methods and compositions, including diagnostic kits, for the detection of Staphylococcus Aureus (SA) and clinically important antibiotic resistant forms thereof, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA), mupirocin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (mupSA), and the like, from individuals in a sample population are disclosed Also disclosed are cost effective methods and kits for bacterial sampling and analysis via inherent and expeditious SA cell disruption methods followed by Direct PCR, circumventing the need, expense and contamination πsks associated with DNA isolation methods These improved methods in conjunction with SA prevalence analysis are applied so as to eliminate the approximately 70% of samples in the human population which do not carry SA (SA negative), followed by a second more costly test for antibiotic resistant forms thereof, such as amplification to confirm for presence of MRSA or other target disease

Method for detecting the presence or absence of pathogenic Staphylococci in a test sample, including test mixture with micro particles

A presence / absence test for Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) involves placing a first generation test sample in a solution that will clot in the presence of S. aureus. The solution contains components that will selectively grow S. aureus and also contains clotting factors that will react with S. aureus, if S. aureus is present in the sample, to clot the solution. Examples of specimen samples that can be tested include nasal swabs and lesion swabs, among others. The test can also be modified to detect the presence or absence of methicillin resistant S. Aureus (MRSA). The addition of micro particles having a size in the range of about 0.1 micron to about 1.0 mm provides localities where the bacteria agglomerate, thereby significantly decreasing the clotting time, and providing a significantly stronger clot. The micro particles can be used in other bacteria tests to accelerate the production of an end result. Such other tests can include a vancomycin-resistant enterococcus test; a Group B Streptococcus test; a test for hemolytic E. coli; and a test for Listeria monocytogenes, to name a few. These tests are all performed in a liquid broth-type reagent mixture and do not necessarily involve clotting of the broth.
