Matrix‐Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique is used to cover titanium (Ti) substrates with multifunctional bioactive coatings composed of bioglass, vitamin D3, and melittin. Coatings exhibited excellent chemical integrity and favorable micro/nanostructured morphology (promoting cellular adhesion and viability), and a sustained release of

Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective
The development of resistance to antimicrobials and their historical progression are depicted in this graphic. It draws attention to important biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that contribute to AMR, such as the transmission of genes, the development of biofilms, and the inactivation of antibiotics.

Resistance to ceftaroline - 2018 review
Ceftaroline is a new fifth generation cephalosporin, active mostly against Gram-positive cocci, e.g. Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). It is used in treating acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections,

Discrepancies in Beta‐Lactam Antibiotics Cross‐Reactivity: Implications for Clinical Practice
Four studies previously published on beta‐lactam antibiotics cross‐reactivity were compared head‐to‐head. These studies covered 51 antibiotics, theoretically leading to 2550 potential recommendations regarding alternatives in case of specific allergies. The studies analysed different sets of beta‐lactam antibiotics.

Cephalosporin‐induced liver injury usually presents as a self‐limited, mixed, or cholestatic hepatitis without hypersensitivity features, typically developing 1 to 4 weeks after treatment. With cefazolin, it often occurs after a single parenteral dose. A strong genetic association has been found with HLA‐A*02:01, with more severe liver injury at onset.

Multidrug resistant (or antimicrobial-resistant) pathogens - alternatives to new antibiotics? [PDF]
For the last few decades, multidrug resistance has become an increasing concern for both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The number of new molecules has dramatically decreased and antibiotic resistance is now a priority in the international ...
