European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy (ENOVAT) 2025 guidelines for surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis in dogs and cats

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis involves the administration of antimicrobials to reduce the risk of a surgical site infection and represents a significant proportion of all antimicrobial use in cats and dogs. This evidence‐based, European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Therapy guideline provides recommendations for both peri ...

The Need for a Revision of Fluoroquinolone Breakpoints for Interpretation of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Feline Bacterial Isolates

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fluoroquinolone antimicrobial agents, enrofloxacin and marbofloxacin, were approved in the United States for cats in 1990 and 2001, respectively. In 2023, revised breakpoints for testing isolates from dogs were published. These canine breakpoints are discordant with the current feline breakpoints.

Occurrence of beta-lactamases, namely GES-5 carbapenemase, among Gram-negative isolates from wastewater samples in Northern Portugal [PDF]

, 2012
Antimicrobial resistant pathogens are profoundly relevant to human health and many were the studies that focused on their spread. However, natural and human associated environmental reservoirs of resistance are yet poorly understood.

Germicidal potential and skin compatibility of an innovative UVC phototherapy device emitting at 234 nm

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
A phototherapy device emitting principally at 234 nm was assessed for antimicrobial efficacy against Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus and evaluated for skin health hazards. Abstract Chronic wounds are a major healthcare issue affecting more than 10 million Americans each year, with a 5‐year survival similar to cancer and costing the ...

Photodynamic inactivation increases cell death rate on persistent Staphylococcus aureus

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Persistent bacteria have the ability to survive extended periods of antibiotic stress by entering a metabolically dormant state. This study investigated persistence formation in two S. aureus strains and evaluated the effects of PDI using curcumin. Post‐PDI time‐kill assays conducted after metabolic recovery showed a higher rate of bacterial death ...

Changes in the Dispensing of Antibiotics to Australian Children Between 2013 and 2023: Are We Heading in the Right Direction?

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical public health issue, exacerbated by the overuse and misuse of antibiotics. Children are particularly susceptible to bacterial infections and are frequently prescribed antibiotics. Objective This study examined trends in antibiotic dispensing to children aged under 13 years in Australia

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.
