Abstract
The synthesis of 5H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridines analogues (1a - 1h) and 4H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridines (3a - 3c) was achieved by reacting 3,4-diaminopyridine or 2,3-diaminopyridine with Na2S2O5 adduct of corresponding benzaldehydes (a1 - a8). Alkylation of compounds (1a - 1h) and (3a - 3c) using 4-chlorobenzyl and /or butyl bromide under basic conditions (K2CO3, DMF) predominantly resulted in the formation of N5 regioisomers (2a - 2l) and N4,3 regioisomers (4a - 4c1,2), respectively. The N5,4,3-regioisomeric structures were confirmed using 2D-NOESY (Nuclear Overhauser Effect Spectroscopy) and HMBC (Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation) spectra. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the synthesized compounds (2a - 2g, 4a - 5d) were evaluated in vitro against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Methicillin resistant S. aureus, Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis. Among the synthesized compounds, promising activities were observed with compounds 2g, 2h, 4a and 4b with lowest MIC values (4-8 µg/mL). The compounds 2i, 2j, 2k, 2l showed moderate activity. Additionally, a computational approach (ADMETlab 2.0) was used to evaluate the drug likeness properties of the compounds.

Abstract
Chemical investigation of secondary metabolites in crude methanol extract of a solid rice medium of a marine-derived fungus, Rhizopus oryzae, has enriched the metabolic profile of this genus by affording three mycophenolic acid derivatives recognized as new fungal metabolites trivially named as penicacids H–J (1–3), along with two known naphtho-γ-pyrone dimers, asperpyrone A (4) and dianhydroaurasperone C (5). Structure elucidation of isolated compounds was unambiguously determined based on extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses together with comparing coupling constant and optical rotation values with those reported for related congeners in literature. All isolated compounds were assessed for their antibacterial activity against four different bacterial microorganisms and they revealed moderate to weak activities with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 62.5 to 250 μg mL−1. Penicacids H–J (1–3), three new natural MPA derivatives, were purified from a marine-derived fungus, Rhizopus oryzae, together with two known naphtho-γ-pyrone dimers, asperpyrone A (4) and dianhydroaurasperone C (5).![]()

Abstract
When the problem with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) increases, the older antimicrobial agents such as colistin and fosfomycin are used for the treatment of these infections. In this study, the broth microdilution method for colistin and the agar dilution method for fosfomycin were used for a total of 147 multidrug-resistant (MDR) or extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains of CRE. The study included Klebsiella pneumoniae (91.16%), Escherichia coli (7.48%), Enterobacter cloacae (0.68%), and Serratia marcescens (0.68%). All these strains produce various types of carbapenemase, including OXA-48, NDM, and KPC. Some of these strains also have three different carbapenemase mechanisms, including OXA-48 (78.23%), NDM (2.04%), and KPC (0.68%) or OXA-48 and NDM (10.88%), or OXA-48 and KPC (0.68%). About 76.19% of the strains and 67.35% of the strains were resistant for colistin and fosfomycin, respectively. A total of 21 out of 35 colistin-susceptible strains were found to be susceptible to fosfomycin. This study showed that the resistance rates of colistin and fosfomycin are high. The MDR and XDR strains of CRE are spreading in our region and thus a monitoring system for CRE should be followed. Moreover, the applicability of antimicrobial stewardship programs should be increased in all inpatient and outpatient settings.

Abstract
Accurate identification of viridans group streptococci (VGS) frequently encountered as a causative agent of infective endocarditis is always a challenge for the clinical microbiology laboratory. Clinical microbiology laboratories generally use semi automatic/full automatic systems, molecular methods and also conventional methods for the identification of these bacteria. There are recent published studies that have used MALDI-TOF (Matrix Assisted Laser Ionization Mass Spectrometry-Time of Flight) systems in the identification of VGS. The aim of the study was to compare the performance of the conventional methods, semi automatic and MALDI-TOF MS system used in identification of VGS in oral microbiota of persons under the risk of infective endocarditis, with the gold standard method 16S rRNA sequence analysis and to create a diagnosis algorithm for the identification of VGS in clinical microbiology laboratories according to the obtained data.The study was conducted with 51 VGS strains isolated from oral microbiota of the patients with rheumatologic cardiac, valve and/or prosthetic valve diseases, under the risk of development of infective endocarditis, who have admitted to Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital, Department of Cardiology, between February-June 2015. Standard microbiology procedures, optochin susceptibility and bile solubility tests were done for the isolation of bacteria. Bacteria were also identified with APISTREP (bioMérieux, France) and MALDI-TOF MS Bruker Microflex (Bruker Biotyper; Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) methods. BSF-8 (5´-AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3´) and BSR-534(5´-ATTACCGCGGCTGCTGGC-3´) primers were used in the 16S rRNA sequence analysis of bacteria. ABI PRISM 3100 Avan t Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biossytems, Foster City, CA, USA) were used for the sequence analysis. Electropherograms were analyzed in SeqScape Software (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) and compared with the reference sequences in GenBank with BLASTN (NCBI). According to the result of optochin and bile solubility tests, with API STREP system, 16 (31,37%) of the isolates were identified as Mitis group, 15 (29.41%) as Anginosus group, 9 (17.5%) as Salivarius group, 7 (13,73%) as Sanguinis group and 4 (7.84%) as Bovis group among optochin and bile resistant alpha hemolytic streptococci. Moreover, of the same isolates 20 (39.22%) were identified as Mitis group, 14 (27.45%) as Anginosus group, 13 (25.49%) as Salivarius group and 4 (7.84%) as Sanguinis group with MALDI-TOF system. In the identification with 16S rRNA, 25 (49.02%) of the isolates were identified as Mitis group, 13 (25.49%) as Anginosus group, 12 (23.53%) as Salivarius group and 1 (1.96%) as Sanguinis group. According to the results, it was determined that 33 (64.70%) of the isolates identified in MALDI-TOF MS system and 31 (60.78%) of the isolates identified in API STREP system were compatible with 16S rRNA sequence analysis method. For Mitis group, API STREP test sensitivity was 48.00% and specificity was 84.62% and MALDI-TOF system sensitivity was 80.00% and specificity was 100%. As VGS identification is a complicated process, we believe a single method will be insufficient for the identification of these isolates in clinical microbiology laboratories. We suggest that MALDI-TOF system can be used for VGS diagnosis, however, optochin test and/or molecular methods should also be included in the diagnosis algorithm when necessary.

Abstract
This study applied two phenotypic tests, namely "Carbapenemase Nordmann-Poirel" (CarbaNP) test and "Carbapenem Inactivation Method" (CIM), against the isolates carrying the carbapenem resistance genes. The study included 83 carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates producing oxacillinase-48 (OXA-48) and 30 carbapenem-sensitive Enterobacteriaceae isolates. Out of the total isolates studied, 77 isolates (92.77%) were identified as Klebsiella pneumoniae and six isolates (7.23%) were identified as Escherichia coli by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method used to detect resistance genes found that 74 isolates (89.16%) produced OXA-48 carbapenemase, whereas nine isolates (10.84%) produced both OXA-48 and New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1 (NDM-1). The isolates producing both OXA-48 and NDM-1 were found to be positive by both phenotypic tests. Among isolates carrying only blaOXA-48 gene alone, nine isolates (13.04%) for CarbaNP test and two isolates for CIM test (2.90%) displayed false negative results, respectively. The sensitivity of CarbaNP and CIM tests was found to be 89.16% and 97.59%, respectively, whereas the specificity was determined to be 100% for both tests. These findings suggest that CarbaNP and CIM tests are useful tools to identify the carbapenemase producers. Molecular methods like PCR are recommended to verify false negative tests predicted to have OXA-48 activity.

Abstract
The viridans group Streptococci (VGS) are most abundant in the mouth; in some instances they might emerge as pathogens particularly in infective endocarditis (IE). In this study, we aimed to define and determine the susceptibility against antibiotics of VGS that are members of the oral microbiota of patients exhibiting a risk of developing IE. Forty-nine patients at risk of infective endocarditis were included in the study. Identification of the bacteria was performed using API STREP (bioMérieux, France). Gradient test strips (E-Test, France) were used to determine MIC of the bacteria against penicillin, ampicillin, and vancomycin. The distribution of the isolated VGS groups was determined as follows: Streptococcus mitis 32.6% and anginosus group - 32.6%, S. sanguinis group - 16.3%, S. mutans group - 12.2%, and S. salivarius group - 6.1%. The rates of resistance and reduced sensitivity of the isolates for penicillin and ampicillin were determined at 61.2% and 55.1%, respectively. However, all isolates were found to be susceptible to vancomycin. We conclude that the antimicrobial resistance of VGS should be determined on a regular basis locally, and decisions on therapeutic and prophylactic interventions should be given taking this resistance into consideration.

Abstract
Determination of treatment protocols for infections according to antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST) results is are important for controlling the problem of antibiotic resistance. Two standards are widely used in the world. One of them is Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) standards used in Turkey for many years and the other is the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) standards which is used in European Union member countries and came into use in 2015 in Turkey. Since the EUCAST standards had higher clinical sensitivity limits particularly for gram-negative bacilli compared to CLSI (2009) standards, there will be some changes in antibiotic resistance profiles of Turkey with the use of EUCAST. CLSI has changed zone diameters after 2009 versions and the differences between the two standards were brought to a minimum level. Knowledge of local epidemiological data is important to determine empirical therapy which will be used in urinary tract infections (UTI). The aim of this study was to determine the differences of antibiotic susceptibility zone diameters based on our local epidemiological data among uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates according to EUCAST 2014 and CLSI 2014 standards. A total of 298 E.coli strains isolated from urine samples as the cause of uncomplicated acute UTI agents, were included in the study. Isolates were identified by conventional methods and with BBL Crystal E/NF ID System (Becton Dickinson, USA). AST was performed with Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method and results were evaluated and interpreted according to the CLSI 2014 and EUCAST 2014 standards. According to the results, susceptibility rates of isolates against amikacin (100%) and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (63.09%) were identical in both standards. However, statistically significant differences were observed between CLSI and EUCAST standards in terms of susceptibilities against gentamicin (91.95% and 84.56%, respectively; p= 0.004), cefuroxime axetil (20.13% and 77.18%, respectively; p= 0.000) and levofloxacin (73.83% and 67.11%, respectively; p= 0.044). No statistically differences between two standards for ampicillin (32.89% and 36.24%, respectively; p= 0.219), ampicillin-sulbactam (65.77% and 69.13%, respectively; p= 0.216), ciprofloxacin (72.48% and 71.14%, respectively; p= 0.392) and imipenem (94.63% and 95.30%, respectively; p= 0.426) were determined. In this transitional period, continuity of cooperation between the clinician and microbiology laboratory should be kept forefront and the maintenance of local surveillance studies should be provided by taking into account the changes in antibiotic susceptibility results.
