Airborne Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria Isolated from a Concentrated Swine Feeding Operation [PDF]
The use of nontherapeutic levels of antibiotics in swine production can select for antibiotic resistance in commensal and pathogenic bacteria in swine. As a result, retail pork products, as well as surface and groundwaters contaminated with swine waste ...

Expression of DNA Gyrase at mRNA Levels and Antibacterial Effect of FluoroquinoloneDerived Compounds on Two Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria; Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis [PDF]
Introduction: Fluoroquinolones are a form of antibiotics capable of influencing DNA Gyrase of bacteria. Any alteration in the structure of current fluoroquinolone antibacterials may provide a better effect on the growth inhibition of bacteria.

Major bacterial isolate and antibiotic resistance from routine clinical samples in Southern Ethiopia
Currently, antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections are a challenge for the health care system. Although physicians demand timely drug resistance data to guide empirical treatment, local data is rather scarce. Hence, this study performed a retrospective
