Conductive, monolithic carbon xerogel electrodes have been synthesized using a flexible support and resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) polycondensation reaction with RF precursor weight percentages of 37, 40, 45, 50 to tailor pore size distributions for electrosorption. Increased produced volumes greater than 0.4 cm3/g. External examined by SEM was shown decrease increasing percent from >300 nm <50 37 wt% RF, respectively. Carbon were used in capacitive deionization cell demonstrating...
ABSTRACT Background Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) cause significant mortality and are resistant to most antimicrobial agents. Imipenem/relebactam, a novel beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor combination, 16 other antimicrobials were evaluated against non-metallo-beta-lactamase-producing carbapenem-resistant clinical isolates from United States tertiary academic medical center. Objectives To evaluate imipenem/relebactam commonly utilised agents Enterobacteriaceae. Methods:...
USCAST is one of many national committees that establish standards for testing and interpreting antimicrobial susceptibility. While working closely with EUCAST, has proposed updated breakpoints the aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, tigecycline discussing tetracycline antimicrobials. A majority US hospitals currently utilize FDA or CLSI breakpoints. This study sought to determine impact on a population carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae at tertiary referral academic medical center....
Polymyxins are being revitalized to combat carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). However, evaluating the activity of these agents by traditional broth dilution methods is not practical for busy clinical laboratories. We compared polymyxin B (PMB) utilizing two quantitative susceptibility testing methods, Etest® and microdilution (BMD), against CRE isolates from patients at an academic medical center. PMB 70 recent was determined BMD according CLSI guidelines. P. aeruginosa ATCC®...
CRE are a world-wide public health challenge with extremely limited treatment options. Aminoglycosides have variable susceptibility against these organisms. At our institution, amikacin has been active isolates and useful as part of combination regimen for treatment. In this study, we compared the results 3 aminoglycosides between an automated system (Phoenix) broth microdilution (BMD). Gentamicin, tobramycin, were determined in academic medical center microbiology laboratory using (BMD)...
