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 ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11611 Tue 07 May 2024 08:31:05 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11435 Thu 13 May 2021 16:47:29 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11899 Thu 13 May 2021 14:48:07 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11181 Thu 13 May 2021 14:07:32 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11463 Thu 13 May 2021 12:12:20 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11792 Thu 13 May 2021 10:59:59 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11395 Thu 13 May 2021 09:14:05 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11313 Thu 13 May 2021 08:52:53 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11431 Thu 13 May 2021 08:49:59 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11472 Thu 13 May 2021 08:49:27 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11099 Thu 13 May 2021 08:17:54 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11559 Thu 13 May 2021 07:41:22 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11332 Thu 13 May 2021 07:34:41 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11433 Thu 13 May 2021 07:30:40 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11948 Thu 13 May 2021 07:21:34 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11467 Thu 13 May 2021 07:21:22 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11180 Thu 13 May 2021 07:20:23 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11470 Thu 13 May 2021 07:17:34 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:27567 Thu 13 May 2021 07:10:57 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11440 Thu 13 May 2021 06:49:10 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11778 Thu 13 May 2021 06:42:35 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11335 Thu 13 May 2021 06:42:06 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11676 Thu 13 May 2021 06:40:27 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11868 Thu 13 May 2021 06:24:14 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11102 Thu 13 May 2021 06:09:56 SAST ]]> http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11240 0.05); and efficient bactericidal activity (100% bacterial cells killed) at 1/2MIC and 4xMIC over different time intervals, 36-72hrs and 18-72hrs respectively. The appearance of bands on the thin layer chromatography (TLC) chromatogram spotted with the chloroform extracts of PH and CRT; and developed with hexane: ethyl acetate: acetic acid (HEA) and methanol: acetic acid: water (MAAW) solvent systems indicated the presence of compounds. Purification of the compounds contained in these extracts over silica gel column yielded numerous fractions which were evaluated for antibacterial activity and purity. PHF5 was the most active fraction with a mean MIC50 value of 1.25mg/mL. Volatile compounds belonging to different known chemical families in honey were identified in all the active fractions obtained from PH. Conversely, only four compounds were identified in the active fractions obtained from CRT hence the non volatile constituents could be of prime relevance with respect to antibacterial activity of this honey. Of novelty was the presence of thiophene and N-methyl-D3-azirdine compounds, essential precursors used for the synthesis of natural products and pharmaceuticals with vital biomedical properties. Linalool demonstrated potent inhibitory (MIC95, 0.002- 0.0313mg/mL) and bactericidal activity (0.0039-0.313mg/mL) against the test isolates. On the other hand, a significant difference was recorded (P < 0.05) in comparing the activity of linalool compound to the fractions. PH could serve as a good economic source of bioactive compounds which could be employed as template for the synthesis of novel anti-H. pylori drugs.

Meat samples were obtained to determine meat colour, ultimate pH, temperature, cooking loss and tenderness. Correlations between bleeding times and meat quality variables were also determined. The two abattoirs differed in terms of technology and the procedures used, and this brought about different response behaviours in sheep at slaughter, bleeding times at exsanguination and the quality of meat produced. Animal-related factors (breed, gender and age classes) had no effect on the avoidance-related behaviour of sheep slaughtered at the commercial abattoir, while these factors affected those sheep slaughtered at the municipal abattoir. These factors also had an effect on the quality of meat produced at both abattoirs. Gender and weight of the animals had effects on the bleeding times at exsanguination at both abattoirs.
