The presence of tetracycline resistance genes in Acinetobacter species justifies the observed phenotypic resistance to oxytetracycline and intermediate resistance to minocycline. High phenotypic resistance and the presence of some resistance genes in Staphylococcus species is a possible threat to public health and suggests animals to be important reservoirs of antibiotic resistance determinants in the environment. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics induces this kind of antibiotic resistance and should be discouraged. Personal hygiene is encouraged as it reduces the load of Acinetobacter species contacted from the environment that may be difficult to control. Commensal Stenotrophomonas maltophilia are as important as their clinical counterparts due to their roles in opportunistic infection, antibiotic resistance and their associated genes, especially sul gene. Personal hygiene is hereby advocated especially when in contact with soil, plants and plants’ rhizospheric soil.]]> Tue 07 May 2024 08:48:34 SAST ]]> The effect of strategic leadership on competitive advantage & innovation performance : a case of small business in the Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:33200 Thu 13 May 2021 05:38:23 SAST ]]> The effect of teaching text organisation on reading in English as a second language https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:1372 Thu 13 May 2021 04:55:34 SAST ]]> The life history of a minnow, Barbus Anoplus, in a man-made lake in South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5346 Thu 13 May 2021 04:35:06 SAST ]]> Structural analysis of proteases from South African HIV-1 (subtype C) patients undergoing Lopinavir treatment, using comparative modeling, ligand-docking and molecular dynamics https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:20744 Thu 13 May 2021 03:51:11 SAST ]]>
