Novel insights into healthy humans’ faecal carriage of enterococci: Enterococcu...
Almeida-Santos, A. C.; Duarte, B.; Teixeira, M. J.; Tedim, A. P.; Novais, C.; Peixe, L.; Freitas, A. R.Background: Enterococcus lactis (Elts) [former Enterococcus faecium (Efm) clade-B] has been greatly associated with human colonization, but its epidemiology is unknown since this reclassification [1]. We aimed to assess the contemporary faecal carriage of enterococci species among healthy-humans (HH) in Portugal and get novel insights about Efm/Elts differences. Methods: Fifty-one faecal samples (29-women/22-me...
Nasal colonization by Staphylococcus aureusin Health Sciences students and anal...
Gomes-Sampaio, L. M.; Cláudia-Ferreira, A.; Prata, J. C.; Azevedo, R. M. S.; Pacheco, P.; Campos, Carla; Novais, C.; Peixe, L.; Dinis-Oliveira, R. J.Staphylococcus aureusis the leading bacterial cause of death globally. Nasal carriage of S. aureusincreases the risk of invasive infections, including by methicillin-resistant S. aureus(MRSA) strains, but studies including Portuguese university students (PUS) are scarce. To analyse the prevalence of methicillin-susceptible S. aureus(MSSA) and MRSA among PUS enrolled in different courses/years (1st-4th) at IUCS-...

Yeast from urinary nosocomial infection : biofilm and susceptibility to antifun...
Freitas, A. R.; Baeza, L C.; Dota, K. F. D.; Negri, M.; Svidzinski, T.Urinary infections caused by yeasts of Candida genus, in hospital environment, are frequent. The object of this work was to evaluate the susceptibility profile of yeasts isolated in patients with urinary infection to antifungal agents, comparing with broth methods microdilution and disk diffusion, and it was evaluated the capacity of these yeasts to form biofilm as well. There were used 98 samples isolated from...
