The Triple Combination of Meropenem, Avibactam, and a Metallo-β-Lactamase Inhibitor Optimizes Antibacterial Coverage Against Different β-Lactamase Producers [PDF]
This work explores the potential of a triple combination of meropenem (MEM), a novel metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) inhibitor (indole-2-carboxylate 58 (InC58)), and a serine-β-lactamase (SBL) inhibitor (avibactam (AVI)) for broad-spectrum activity against ...

Revisiting the Checkerboard to Inform Development of β-Lactam/β-Lactamase Inhibitor Combinations [PDF]
A two-dimensional “checkerboard” array employing systematic titration (e.g., serial two-fold dilutions) is a well-established in vitro method for exploring the antibacterial effects of novel drug combinations.

New β-Lactam/β-Lactamase Inhibitor Combination Antibiotics [PDF]
The growing problem of infections due to pathogens with antimicrobial resistance, especially Gram-negative bacteria, has led to the development of new β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination antibiotics.

Dynamically chiral phosphonic acid-type metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors
Antibiotic resistance is a growing global health threat that risks the lives of millions. Among the resistance mechanisms, that mediated by metallo-β-lactamases is of particular concern as these bacterial enzymes dismantle most β-lactam antibiotics ...

Characterization of GQA as a novel β-lactamase inhibitor of CTX-M-15 and KPC-2 enzymes [PDF]
β-lactam resistance is a significant global public health issue. Outbreaks of bacteria resistant to extended-spectrum β-lactams and carbapenems are serious health concerns that not only complicate medical care but also impact patient outcomes.

Background: β-lactamase is an enzyme that plays a role in the occurrence of antibiotic resistance against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. Viscosin is a lipopeptide biosurfactant produced by the Pseudomonas group bacteria.

Penetration of β-lactamase inhibitors into the periplasm of Gram-negative bacteria [PDF]
The effectiveness of a beta-lactamase inhibitor/beta-lactam combination against Gram-negative pathogens depends on many interplaying factors, one of which is the penetration of the inhibitor across the outer membrane. In this work we have measured the relative penetrations of clavulanic acid, sulbactam, tazobactam and BRL 42715 into two strains of ...

Outer membrane permeability of β-lactamase inhibitors inPseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Evaluation of four beta-lactamase inhibitors in terms of their outer membrane permeability in Pseudomonas aeruginosa revealed that sulbactam and tazobactam diffused most efficiently and equally well. That of BRL42715 appeared to be a factor of ten lower than that of the above two, but it showed the strongest beta-lactamase inhibitory activity.
