| risk of gastrointestinal disease associated with exposure to pathogens in the sediments of the lower passaic river. | high levels of pathogenic microorganisms have been documented previously in waters of the lower passaic river in northern new jersey. the purpose of this study was to characterize the microbial contamination of river sediments near combined sewer overflows (csos), a known source of pathogens. concentrations of fecal coliform, total coliform, fecal streptococcus, fecal enterococcus, pseudomonas aeruginosa, staphylococcus aureus, giardia lamblia, and cryptosporidium parvum organisms were measured ... | 2008 | 18156335 |
| complete nucleotide sequences of blakpc-4- and blakpc-5-harboring incn and incx plasmids from klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated in new jersey. | klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (kpc)-producing enterobacteriaceae have emerged as major nosocomial pathogens. bla(kpc), commonly located on tn4401, is found in gram-negative bacterial strains, with the two most common variants, bla(kpc-2) and bla(kpc-3), identified in plasmids with diverse genetic backgrounds. in this study, we examined bla(kpc-4)- and bla(kpc-5)-bearing plasmids recovered from two k. pneumoniae strains, which were isolated from a single new jersey hospital in 2005 and 2006 ... | 2013 | 23114770 |
