Annual Conference on

MICROBIAL PATHOGENESIS, INFECTIOUS DISEASE,

ANTIMICROBIALS AND DRUG RESISTANCE

S

taphylococcus aureus

and related bacteria such as

Streptococci

cause Millions of fatal human infections

annually around the globe with sequelae of complications

and of which some are very difficult to treat with cheap and

widely available antibacterial drugs especially in Uganda,

East Africa. There is also an increasing incidence of bacterial

resistance against various categories of antibacterial drugs

causing chronicity of some infections. The following are the

examples of virulence factors; lipases, collagenases, super

antigens, exfoliatin A and B, haemolytic toxins e.g. beta

toxin which is a sphingomyelinase and protein A. The major

will be in; Osteomyelitis, toxic shock syndrome, sepsis and

necrotizing fasciitis. The purpose of this study is to analyze

these virulence factors in detail which will subsequently lead

to the discovery (innovation) of polyvalent antitoxins (e.g.

in vaccine form or a gamma globulins) that will be used to

prevent such fatal infections in groups at high risk. The study

will also reduce future antibiotic abuse and eventually also

reduce antibiotic resistance.
