‘There is worse to come’ : The biopolitics of traumatism in Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) [PDF]

, 2017
This paper reflects on the different futures and imaginaries constructed through the politics and policy of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). We examine the role of catastrophism, trauma and notions of ‘resistance’ expressed at different moments in the development of the AMR debate.

Cross‐Linking Mass Spectrometry of the Antimicrobial Peptides Magainin 2 and PGLa Reveals Heterodimerization in Micellar Medium

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale In this study, we applied cross‐linking mass spectrometry (XL‐MS) to characterize the oligomeric states of a PGLa/magainin 2 mixture and gain insight into the heterodimerization previously suggested in the literature. Both peptides have shown a synergistic enhancement of activity when tested in antimicrobial assays; however, the ...

Machine Learning‐Driven Capillary Microfluidic Design Automation for Programmable Gradient Generation and Antimicrobial Testing

Small, EarlyView.
TCG‐CMDA, a machine learning‐guided capillary microfluidic design automation platform, enables automated design of tree‐shaped concentration gradient generators for programmable mixing of two agents. The pump‐free chip supports synchronized passive flow and programmable gradient formation, providing a practical framework for decentralized point‐of‐care

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...

Vaccines against antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in enterobacteriaceae

, 2021
Enterobacteriaceae is a group of nosocomial pathogens that can colonize various sites and cause serious infections when host defenses are compromised. In this group of bacteria multi-drug resistant organisms have been described. AMR keeps spreading and while antibiotic development will always be subjected to the appearance of resistance, vaccines ...

Belgian bovine veterinarians' practices and opinions on udder health‐related antimicrobial use and services

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Changing legislation regarding antimicrobial consumption (AMC) forces Flemish bovine veterinary practitioners (BVP) to rethink their business models and shift their on‐farm practices from curative to preventive. However, little is known about their current practices and opinions regarding antibiotic stewardship, mastitis treatment ...

Emerging Trends in Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global public health threat that reduces the effectiveness of antibiotics and endangers the treatment of infectious diseases. The misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in healthcare, agriculture, and the environment, along with bacterial mutation and gene transfer, are key drivers of AMR.

‘Knowledge, attitudes and practices’ survey of Austrian veterinarians' antibiotic use in clinical practice

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global health issue, with antimicrobial use (AMU) in veterinary medicine playing a relevant role in its emergence. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes and practices of Austrian veterinarians regarding AMU and AMR.
