    Background: The level of pollution in Indonesia is still very high, consist of water pollution, air pollution and soil pollution. Mercury is one of the heavy metals that pollutes the waters of the sea, while Escherichia coli is exposed to mercury will try to defend itself by doing mercury detoxification so that it can live in an environment that contains mercury. Escherichia coli that tries to defend itself from mercury exposure in the environment will experience a change in its genes into mercury resistant Escherichia coli. In plasmids or transposons, it might also stimulate the formation of resistance genes for some antibiotics, include producing the ESBL enzyme, so that it can convert non ESBL Escherichia coli into ESBL Escherichia coli. Objective: This study aims to prove that the repeated exposure of mercury will change non ESBL-mercury sensitive Escherichia coli into ESBL- mercury resistant Escherichia coli. Method: This was an experimental study with 27 non-ESBL Escherichia coli isolates as identified from Phoenix. Non-ESBL Escherichia coli clinical isolates were tested by giving exposure to HgCl2 with concentrations of 0.02 ppm, 0.10 ppm, 0.20 ppm for 1-14 days until mercury resistant Escherichia coli was formed, and then ESBL screening was tested by giving Cefotaxime exposure to them. Results: On the first day of mercury exposure, there were 9 isolates of 0.02 ppm HgCl2 resistant Escherichia coli, 9 isolates of 0.10 ppm HgCl2 resistant Escherichia coli, 9 isolates of 0.20 ppm HgCl2 resistant Escherichia coli. Furthermore, this Escherichia coli isolate was exposed to Cefotaxim as ESBL screening. The final results of post-exposure HgCl2 0.02 ppm was obtained 3 (33.3%) isolates were still sensitive to Cefotaxime and 6 (66.7%) isolates that were resistant to Cefotaxime. The final results of post-exposure HgCl2 0.10 ppm was obtained all 9 (100%) isolates that were resistant to Cefotaxime. The final results of post-exposure HgCl2 0.20 ppm obtained 2 (22.2%) isolates were still sensitive to Cefotaxime and 7 (77.8%) isolate were resistant to Cefotaxime. Conclusion: Escherichia coli in urine had the phenotive change into mercury resistant Escherichia coli. Mercury exposure of 0.02 ppm, 0.10 ppm, 0.20 ppm for 1 day in vitro on isolates of non ESBL-mercury resistant Escherichia coli caused changes in 22 isolates of Escherichia coli in urine

    Актуальність. В Україні з кожним роком відзначається збільшення кількості жінок, вагітність яких перебігає на тлі хронічних інфекційних захворювань. Escherichia coli є частим збудником бактеріальних інфекцій у жінок. Метою дослідження було виявлення морфологічних особливостей нирок плодів і новонароджених від матерів з експериментальним абдомінальним підгострим інфекційно-запальним процесом, викликаним Escherichia coli. Матеріали та методи. Авторами проведено експеримент на щурах лінії WAG, в ході якого сформовано дві групи: група I — 7 плодів та 11 новонароджених від 3 здорових самок; група II — 10 плодів і 13 новонароджених від 4 самок, яким моделювали абдомінальний інфекційно-запальний процес, викликаний Escherichia coli. Матеріалом дослідження послужили нирки плодів та новонароджених. Використовували гістологічні, гістохімічні, морфометричні та статистичні методи досліджень. Результати. Абдомінальний підгострий інфекційно-запальний процес в організмі матері, викликаний Escherichia coli, призводить до структурних змін у паренхіматозному та стромальному компонентах нирок, які наростали від плода до новонародженого. Гломерулярний апарат нирок характеризується нерівномірним розташуванням у кірковому шарі, затримкою розвитку, зміною форми, гемодинамічними змінами, розширенням сечового простору, відсутністю судинних клубочків, зменшенням кількості і компактності розташування капілярних петель в деяких молодих і зрілих ниркових тільцях; тубулярний апарат — затримкою розвитку, зміною форми та вогнищевим потовщенням базальних мембран окремих канальців, вогнищевими дистрофічними, некротичними та десквамативними змінами епітеліальної вистилки; стромальний компонент — склеротичними змінами, гемодинамічними порушеннями, більш вираженими в мозковому шарі, клітинною інфільтрацією, яка характеризується наявністю клітин фібробластичного ряду та імунних клітин. Висновки. Гістологічні та морфометричні зміни, що розвинулися в нирках плодів і новонароджених, зумовлені наявністю у матері експериментального підгострого інфекційно-запального процесу в черевній порожнині, викликаного Escherichia coli, призведуть в майбутньому до зниження функціональних можливостей нирок як гомеостатичного органу і розвитку різної нефрологічної патології у таких дітей.

    Objective To investigate the relationship between clinical parameters related to acute bacterial dysentery and other infectious diarrhea in adults. Methods From April to October 2018, 70 patients with clinical diagnosis of acute bacterial dysentery, 180 patients with clinical diagnosis of infectious diarrhea and 399 patients with diarrhea to be examined were investigated retrospectively. The collected data included gender, age, time from onset to treatment, maximum body temperature, main symptoms, epidemiological history, blood routine, C-reactive protein and stool routine. Analysis of these clinical factors related to acute bacterial dysentery and other infectious diarrhea. Results A total of 70 patients with acute bacterial dysentery, 180 patients with other infectious diarrhea and 399 patients with diarrhea of unknown origin were investigated. The positive rate of epidemiology in the three groups was statistically significant (P<0.05); the age of onset of bacterial dysentery was younger than that in patients with diarrhea of unknown origin (P<0.05). Compared with the other two groups of patients, the onset to visit time was earlier, the number of vomiting was higher, the incidence of fever and tenesmus was higher, and the levels of white blood cells, neutrophils and C-reactive protein were significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusions Patients with acute bacterial dysentery, other infectious diarrhea, and diarrhea of unknown origin have some differences in epidemiological history, age at onset, clinical manifestations, and laboratory tests.

    Host, vector, and culture conditions (including cultivation media) are considered among the three main elements contributing to a successful production of recombinant proteins. Accordingly, one of the most common hosts to produce recombinant therapeutic proteins is Escherichia coli.A comprehensive literature review was performed to identify important factors affecting production of recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli.Escherichia coli is taken into account as the easiest, quickest, and cheapest host with a fully known genome. Thus, numerous modifications have been carried out on Escherichia coli to optimize it as a good candidate for protein expression and; as a result, several engineered strains of Escherichia coli have been designed. In general; host strain, vector, and cultivation parameters are recognized as crucial ones determining success of recombinant protein expression in Escherichia coli. In this review, the role of host, vector, and culture conditions along with current pros and cons of different types of these factors leading to success of recombinant protein expression in Escherichia coli were discussed.Successful protein expression in Escherichia coli necessitates a broad knowledge about physicochemical properties of recombinant proteins, selection among common strains of Escherichia coli and vectors, as well as factors related to media including time, temperature, and inducer.

    A total of nine Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates were originally isolated from imported Indian beef purchased from local retail markets. These nine Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates were confirmed as Escherichia coli O157:H7 by their positive growth characteristics on Rainbow agar O157 and PCR assay for the detection of the presence of the H7 (fliC) gene unique to Escherichia coli O157:H7. Published specific primers FLICH (625 bp) of the fliC gene encoding the H7 antigen were utilized in the specific PCR assay. Three of the Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates were selected for the amplification of their H7 (fliC) gene. The amplicon of the PCR assay were successfully cloned into pGEM-T vector and sequenced. The sequence of the Escherichia coli O157:H7 that was obtained from sequencing was analyzed. This sequence was identified using Basic Local Alignment Search Tools (Blast) program. Based on the sequence obtained, primer pairs were designed to detect the Escherichia coli O157:H7, but only Sk7 and Sk8 were found to be specific for detection of locally isolated Escherichia coli O157:H7. Sk7 and Sk8 produced an amplicon size of 520 bp and 603 bp respectively against all tested locally isolated Escherichia coli O157:H7. Both new primers were specific against Escherichia coli O157:H7, as they did not produce any amplicons from the 32 isolats representing 20 different bacterial species. DNA hybridization analysis of 10 other bacterial species, including E. coli, Salmonella and other isolates showed that the probe (SkP) reacted only with Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates.
