Screening of invitro activity of antimicrobial and antibiofilm property of Mesenchymal stems cells-converted

Author(s): C Anitha

 Recent studies had showed that Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have beneficial effects on bacterial infections. Treatment with MSCs has proven bacterial clearance. This study was undertaken to study the in vitro activity of antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity of stems cells against gram negative multidrug resistant organism from urinary tract infections. Today, because systemic infections such as urinary tract infection (UTI) affect even pediatric patients, antibiotic resistant bacteria have become a constant clinical challenge. In the present study, a total of 1054 urine samples were collected from pediatric patients over 18 months. From these samples, 510 isolates of pathogenic bacteria were collected using HiCrome UTI agar. Antibiotic sensitivity tests of isolates were performed using the Kirby-Bauer method. Two Gram-positive bacteria (Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus) and 7 Gram-negative bacteria (Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella oxytoca, K. pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) were isolated.
