meant that the efficacy of frontline antibiotics is being eroded continually by the spread of transmissible resistance conferring genetic elements and the evolution of multi-drug resistant (MDR) pathogens. This has led to the antibiotic resistance crisis, a major threat to our global healthcare infras...
Being an excellent antibiotic carrier, advancements in polymersome designing and drug delivery optimization are the current focus to reach maximum antibacterial potential [176]. 4.10. Polymeric micelles Polymeric micelles (PM) are self-assembled nanostructured core-shell structures generated inside water by...
Beyond lysogenic phage, serine recombinases have also been shown to have roles in mobilization of pathogenicity islands and antibiotic resistance cassettes, such as the tandem LSRs that control integration and excision of SCCmec, which confers methicillin resistance to S. aureus31. Since many genes...

with an anthracycline antibiotic such as daunorubicin. The induction phase usually lasts for 7 days. After remission has been triggered, treatment moves into the consolidation stage. This step typically involves several 3-day courses of cytarabine, but can also involve hematopoietic stem cell transplant...
Selection was performed using both antibiotic resistance and fluorescent markers for each lentivirus. Beginning on day 3 after initial infection, 10 mg/ml blasticidin and 1 mg/ml puromycin (Life Technologies) were added to the medium for selection and selection was continued until all cells ...
New algorithm demonstrates the ability to detect antibiotic allergic-type reactions and provide feedback to clinicians regarding antibiotic harms.
