Identification and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Anaerobes Isolated from Clinical Specimens: A Study Re-emphasizing Role of the Neglected Bacteria Causing Significant Infections

JK Science, 2021
Background: Anaerobic bacteria cause significant human infections but isolation, identification and antimicrobial susceptibility of these bacteria in routine microbiology is given least importance. Because of neglect towards this branch of microbiology,

Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2011
There are few activities in the clinical microbiology laboratory that utilize more technologist time and laboratory resources than antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). It has been suggested that, at least in terms of direct relevance to the care of patients with infection, AST may be ...

Bone Healing Around Implants in Normal and Medically Compromised Conditions: Osteoporosis and Diabetes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
xx xx. ABSTRACT Osseointegration of orthopedic and dental implants is influenced by local and systemic factors, including their physicochemical surface properties and the patient's overall health status. Titanium and its alloys have been a longstanding standard for bone implants due to their innate biocompatibility and mechanical properties.

Medical Fabrics with Non‐Antibiotic, Supramolecular Antimicrobial Coatings: A Preventive Approach to Combat Biofilm Formation and Bacterial Dissemination

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents an antibiotic‐free strategy using medical fabrics coated with supramolecular assemblies of polyarginine and hyaluronic acid. These coatings showed strong antimicrobial and anti‐biofilm activity in vitro and in vivo, achieving major bacterial load reductions, including against MRSA.

Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Gardnerella vaginalis

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1993
The in vitro susceptibilities of 93 clinical isolates of Gardnerella vaginalis to 25 antimicrobial agents were determined by the agar dilution method. All isolates were susceptible to penicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim.

Evaluation of the Dual Impact of Nanotechnologies on Health and Environment Through Alternative Bridging Models

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how alternative invertebrate and small‐vertebrate models advance the evaluation of nanomaterials across medicine and environmental science. By bridging cellular and organismal levels, these models enable integrated assessment of toxicity, biodistribution, and therapeutic performance.

Injectable Stimuli‐Responsive Amphiphilic Hydrogel for Rapid Hemostasis, Robust Tissue Adhesion, and Controlled Drug Delivery in Trauma and Surgical Care

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Fast‐acting hydrogel seals bleeding wounds as the illustrated injectable, pH‐responsive network rapidly gels in situ to stop hemorrhage, adhere strongly to wet tissue, and release antibiotics in a controlled, pH‐dependent manner. The material withstands high pressures, shows excellent biocompatibility, and degrades safely, offering a versatile platform
