Sequential antibiotic exposure restores antibiotic susceptibility. [PDF]

J Antimicrob Chemother
Abstract Background The prevalence of antibiotic resistance continues to rise, rendering many valuable antimicrobial drugs ineffective. Pairwise cyclic antibiotic therapy, where treatment is rapidly switched between two antibiotics, has been demonstrated in vitro to limit the evolution of ...

The Effects of Sub-inhibitory Antibiotic Concentrations on Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Reduced Susceptibility Due to Mutations

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronically infects in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis and other forms of lung disease. Infections are treated with antibiotics, but over time, the bacteria acquire mutations that reduce their antibiotic susceptibility ...

Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing with Raman Biosensing

Antibiotics, 2022
Antibiotics guard us against bacterial infections and are among the most commonly used medicines. The immediate consequence of their large-scale production and prescription is the development of antibiotic resistance.

Empiric antibiotic and in-vitro susceptibility of urosepsis pathogens: do they match? The outcome of a study from south India

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2021
Introduction: Urosepsis is life threatening, unless treated immediately. Empirical treatment with appropriate antibiotics lowers the risk of a poor outcome.
