Carrying adhesin genes on large plasmids associated with antibiotic-resistance determinants indicates a selective advantage for bacteria containing such plasmids. The bacteria adhere to tissues of the urinary and respiratory epithelium to establish infection. Importantly, this type of adherence can be ...
You will probably take antibiotics for 2 weeks. Take them just as it says on the bottle. If you stop taking them too soon, the infection may come back. If you have an antibiotic-resistant infection, your doctor will decide the best way to treat it. They’ll probably try a different ty...
Combination therapy with a beta-lactam antibiotic and an aminoglycoside is considered the standard for empiric treatment of cholangitis. Few comparative data exist to establish this as the optimal therapy. Ciprofloxacin monotherapy is as effective as combination therapy for acute suppurative cholangitis. [...
An important risk to managing infectious illnesses is antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens [6]. There is a great need for novel antimicrobial medicines, but the development of new classes of antibiotics has stalled recently owing to demands of cost and market viability. There have been sever...
Bacteriophages (phages) are one of the most promising alternatives to traditional antibiotic therapies, especially against multidrug-resistant bacteria. Klebsiella pneumoniae is considered to be an opportunistic pathogen that can cause life-threatening i

(b) antibiotic application; (c) phage infection at a high and low MOI; (d) depolymerase action. The colony count indicates only culturable bacteria, thus the antibiotic and phage application showed the best antibiofilm effect. The life/dead ratio gave inconsistent results for ciprofloxacin ...
An antibiotic disk (10µg meropenem) was placed at the center of the MHA plate. Then, in a straight-line manner, the test organism was streaked from the edge of the disc to the periphery of the plate. The plate was then incubated aerobically at 37 °C for 16–24h, and examined. ...
As such, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) is a preeminent antibiotic resistant group. CRE confers resistance to carbapenems by hydrolysing enzymes, efflux pump and porin impermeability mutations [2]. The presence of carbapenemase enzymes like KPC, New-Delhi metallo-lactamase (NDM), ...
(Fox and Rohovsky, 1975). Intensiveantibiotictherapy was successful in controlling an outbreak in arhesus monkeycolony; however, during bacterial isolation and determination of antibiotic sensitivity, 12 monkeys died (Hunt et al., 1968). Administration oftetracycline, 55mg/kgbody weight, in the ...
