What antibiotic is used for bacterial pneumonia? Bacterial Pneumonia: Bacterial pneumonia is the result of a serious bacterial infection of the lungs, typically from S. pneumoniae, though a few other bacteria may be responsible. The S. pneumoniae bacteria can easily spread through airborne droplets ...
For qual- ity control, Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 49619 and Streptococcus agalactiae ATCC 12403 were used as con- trol strains [16, 27]. Disc diffusion All the 128 GBS positive isolates were tested by Kirby– Bauer method for susceptibility to ampicillin (10 μg), vancomycin (30 μg...

Syphilis: Benzylpenicillin sodium is one of the preferred treatments for syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It is administered intravenously or intramuscularly, depending on the stage and severity of the infection. ...
pneumoniae and S. aureus. Alteration of ribosomal target sites is the most common resistance mechanism for macrolides, streptogramins, and lincosamides, whereas DNA gyrase changes may confer resistance to quinolones. Inactivation of β-lactam antibiotics by β-lactamases may be chromosomal (encoded ...
Antimicrobial resistance poses a substantial threat to human health. The gut microbiome is considered a reservoir for potential spread of resistance genes from commensals to pathogens, termed the gut resistome. The impact of probiotics, commonly consumed
Clinical isolates resistant to most drugs have now been seen for many species including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa1. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing is therefore now ...
K. pneumoniae are opportunistic pathogens, which have the ability to colonize the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract and eyes of those vulnerable [70]. Appropriate first-line treatment for EBSL producing K. pneumoniae include with antibiotics like amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, ...
