Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Case Report: The Conundrum of What to Pick? Antibiotic Susceptibility Variability in Burkholderia cenocepacia in Cystic Fibrosis: Implications for Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing and Treatment

British Journal of Biomedical Science
Within cystic fibrosis microbiology, there is often mismatch between the antibiotic susceptibility result of an isolated bacterial pathogen and the clinical outcome, when the patient is treated with the same antibiotic.

[Rapid bioluminescent antibiotic susceptibility assay].

Antibiotiki i khimioterapiia = Antibiotics and chemoterapy [sic], 2010
Rapid testing of pathogen susceptibility to antibiotics is of great practical value for rational chemotherapy of pyoinflammatory deseases and postoperative complications of microbial etiology. The standard microbiological methods, i.e., the disk diffusion method and the method of serial dilutions are labour- and time-consuming (not less than 18-36 ...
