ABSTRACT Limited antimicrobials remain active for treating severe infections due to KPC-producing pathogens, and optimal regimens have not been established. In murine thigh caused by nine clinical strains of Enterobacteriaceae (meropenem MICs, 1 4 μg/ml), we evaluated the activities tigecycline, colistin, meropenem, rifampin, gentamicin in single combination lasting 24 h 48 h. Rifampin, were most effective monotherapies, reducing significantly CFU counts yielded from thighs infected 88.9...
Community-type Staphylococcus aureus strains that are positive for mecA and PBP2a but appear phenotypically susceptible to oxacillin increasingly reported worldwide. Four S. clinical isolates carrying the gene with MICs of <2 microg/ml were tested efficiency by population analyses experimental thigh infections. These harbored staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec type IV belonged two genotypes. Two four found analysis be truly susceptible. All exhibited significant reductions in numbers...
We compared the activity of dicloxacillin with that vancomycin against 15 oxacillin-susceptible, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (OS-MRSA) clinical isolates. By population analyses, we found 6 OS-MRSA isolates were able to grow in presence up 8 μg/ml and 9 12 >32 dicloxacillin; all grew 2 vancomycin. Both drugs exhibited similar bactericidal activities. In experimental infections, therapeutic efficacy was significant (P < 0.05 versus untreated controls) 10 effective 0.05)...
We describe a case of Henoch-Schoenlein purpura, associated with oliguric acute renal failure due to interstitial nephritis histologically proven, in patient staphylococcal chest infection. The clinical syndrome appeared twice after vancomycin administration and yielded on the withdrawal drug. As pathogenetic mechanism we propose an anaphylactoid reaction either or glycoprotein released breakdown microbial cells caused by vancomycin.
Speleothems found in caves worldwide are considered the natural libraries of paleontology. Bacteria these ecosystems generally limited to Proteobacteria and Actinomycetota, but rare microbiome "Dark Matter" is under-investigated often neglected. This research article discusses, for first time our knowledge, diachronic diversity Actinomycetota entrapped inside a cave stalactite. The planet's environmental microbial community profile different eras can be stored refugia (speleothems). These...
Acinetobacter baumannii may exhibit phenotypic heterogeneous growth under exposure to antibiotics. We investigated the in vitro characteristics of A. isolates grown heterogeneously presence meropenem and their virulence evaluated experimental infections treated with meropenem. Five clinical respective subpopulations were tested by agar dilution minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing, pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), population analysis using curves. The therapeutic efficacy...
Much is known about microbes originally identified in caves, but little the entrapment of (bacteria) stalactites and their possible environmental origins. This study presents data regarding significant distribution prokaryotic bacterial taxa a Greek stalactite core. We investigated involvement those bacteria communities using metataxonomic analysis approach partial 16S rRNA genes. The core material revealed an exceptionally broad ecological spectrum classified as members Proteobacteria,...
A flexibly reconfigurable optical circuit switched edge network architecture relying on wavelength-tunable SFP+ transceivers is presented for the first time reconfigurable, low-latency 5G/6G networks. The proposed solution employs traditional cost-effective, fixed wavelength 10G as grey optics towards access side of and programmable tunable at part Central Office premises, while allowing flexible reconfiguration all-passively via an additional AWG demultiplexer. allows to reconfigurably...
Представители родаSerratia вызывают повышенный научный интерес, поскольку они распространены практически повсеместно и проявляют эмульгирующие, поверхностно-активные, противообрастающие, противоопухолевые противомикробные свойства.Вода -естественная среда обитания для нескольких видов серраций.В представляемой публикации мы сообщаем о первом выделении S. proteamaculans из гуано летучих мышей.Цель нашей работы заключалась в изучении мышей подземной водной экосистемы на наличие изолятов...
