Skipped wells and scientific error during fosfomycin agar dilution and broth microdilution lead to inconsistent minimal inhibitory concentrations and may be cause for reevaluating testing methods for Klebsiella pneumoniae

Microbiology Spectrum
Despite the first-line recommendation of fosfomycin for uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs), there are pressing barriers for optimizing its use for the treatment of non-Escherichia coli Enterobacterales UTI.

Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.

Comparison of broth microdilution and agar dilution for susceptibility testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1989
Broth microdilution was compared with agar dilution to test the susceptibilities of 170 clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to several antimicrobial agents. Percents agreement between the two methods within 1 doubling dilution were 98.8% for enoxacin, 94.3% for penicillin G, 93.5% for spectinomycin, and 98.4% for ceftriaxone.

Phenolic composition and multi‐target bioactivities of Globularia alypum extracts across seasons

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigates the influence of seasonal variation on the phytochemical profile and biofunctional activities of ethanolic leaf extracts from Globularia alypum. Leaves collected across four seasons were extracted with a hydroethanolic solvent (80:20, v/v) and analyzed by LC‐ESI‐MS/MS.
