Bacterial Resistance in Acne

Dermatology, 1998
Antibiotics play a major role in acne therapy. Physicians base treatment choices on personal perceptions of efficacy, cost-effectiveness or risk-benefit ratios and rarely take bacterial resistance into account. It is well documented that resistant strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci within the resident skin flora increase in both prevalence and

BACTERIAL RESISTANCE TO ANTIBIOTICS

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1948
Excerpt The development of resistance to the antibiotic drugs is a problem of theoretical interest to the bacteriologist and of practical importance to the clinician.

Mechanisms of Bacterial Resistance

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1995
Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem in clinical pediatrics. Many of the agents traditionally used to treat pediatric pathogens are becoming less effective because of increasing bacterial resistance. In addition, many more children are immunocompromised because of primary or acquired immunodeficiencies and because of advances in cancer ...

Bacterial Resistance to Fluoroquinolones

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1988
Fluoroquinolones inhibit bacteria by interacting with the A subunit of DNA gyrase. Resistance to older agents such as nalidixic acid was due to mutations in the gyrA gene. Resistance to the new fluoroquinolones (e.g., norfloxacin, enoxacin, ofloxacin, pefloxacin, and ciprofloxacin) as a consequence of spontaneous single-step mutation occurs at a low ...

Bacterial Biocide Resistance

Journal of Chemotherapy, 2009
The emergence of bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents has caused increasing concern globally. the basis of bacterial resistance to antibiotics is well known, while the nonsusceptibility mechanisms of bacteria to biocides are less well understood. Recently, there is considerable interest in the problems associated with the development and spread

Overview perspective of bacterial resistance

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 2010
The rapidly escalating prevalence of antimicrobial resistance is a global concern. This reduced susceptibility to currently available antimicrobial agents coupled with the progressive shortage of newly approved compounds is a worrisome situation.

Bacterial Resistance to Carbapenems

1995
The carbapenems have the broadest spectra of all beta-lactams but resistance still occurs, caused by target modification, impermeability or beta-lactamase production. Target modification or replacement is important in methicillin-resistant staphylococci, E. faecium and some pneumococci.

Bacterial drug-resistance

Molecular Genetics, Microbiology and Virology (Russian)
Genetic control of different pathways of drug-resistance formation in bacteria is presented. Possible molecular mechanisms of “new” genes integration into the genomes by horizontal gene transfer are discussed. This review may be valuable for physicians, veterinarians and scientific researches engaged in bacterial evolution.

Antimicrobial resistance and bacterial density

Veterinary Record, 2014
‘ONE Health’ requires ‘one language’ (Ismail 2012), and this applies to antimicrobial resistance, where there is progress on standardising procedures (eg, European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing [EUCAST]). However, most methods measure resistance at the isolate-level and, often, only a single isolate per sample is tested.

Bacterial resistances to mercury and copper

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 1991
AbstractHeavy metals are toxic to living organisms. Some have no known beneficial biological function, while others have essential roles in physiological reactions. Mechanisms which deal with heavy metal stress must protect against the deleterious effects of heavy metals, yet avoid depleting the cell of a heavy metal which is also an essential nutrient.
