Enhancement effects of antimicrobial activities of β-lactam antibiotics by combination with persimmon tannin against β-lactamase-producing Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Background β-lactamase-producing Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most important bacterial pathogens. Combinations of β-lactam antibiotics with β-lactamase inhibitors such as sulbactam and tazobactam are useful therapeutic methods for combating ...

N-Nitroso-β-lactams as β-lactamase inhibitor
N-Nitroso-β-phenyl-β-lactam has been found to be a specific inhibitor of β-lactamase. N-Nitroso-α-phenyl-β-lactam, by contrast, was virtually ineffective although a transient inhibition of short duration was observed.

Carbapenems, used in clinical treatment of multi-drug resistance bacterial infection, can be hydrolyzed by Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases, which weaken the treatment effect of gram negative bacterial infection.

Evaluation of Cefixime-Clavulanate Combination by Comparative Disk Diffusion Method in Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates-An In-Vitro Study [PDF]
Background: Resistance to cephalosporins due to β-lactamases is a major concern worldwide. However recent trend is to use β-lactamase inhibitor combinations. Potential combination is cefiximeclavulanate.

Antibiotic Remodeling of the Gut Microbiota Impairs Host Resistance to Secondary Infection
Gut microbial dynamics induced by four antibiotics, revealed distinct taxonomic and functional shifts. Vancomycin‐perturbed bacteriomes were proven to promote pathogen resistance to antibiotic treatment. Metronidazole‐treated mice showed pronounced Salmonella translocation to hepatic tissue, and altered Enterococcus avium populations modulated host ...

Genome surveillance across a swine‐associated One Health continuum in China shows that slaughterhouses act as major enrichment nodes for tet(X4)‐mediated tigecycline resistance, driven by putative clonal transmission and stable plasmid backbones. Integrating global datasets enables lineage‐specific risk stratification, highlighting key control points ...

ABSTRACT Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is crucial in preventing postoperative surgical site infections (SSIs), especially in clean and clean‐contaminated surgeries. It was a prospective comparative observational study that compared the effectiveness and safety of single‐dose ceftriaxone monotherapy with amoxicillin–clavulanic acid as a ...
