Resistance of Helicobacter pylori to clarithromycin

, 1998
Resistance to clarithromycin in H. pylori has emerged in a number of countries. We present the first documented case of H. pylori resistance to clarithromycin in Denmark. This follows an increase in the use of clarithromycin as part of the treatment of H.

Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

VIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...

PNA-FISH as a new diagnostic method for the determination of clarithromycin resistance of Helicobacter pylori

BMC Microbiology, 2011
Background Triple therapy is the gold standard treatment for Helicobacter pylori eradication from the human stomach, but increased resistance to clarithromycin became the main factor of treatment failure.

Evolution of Bacterial Yield and Antimicrobial Resistance in Chronic Rhinosinusitis Patients in a Dedicated Sinus Centre

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Antibiotics are frequently prescribed for acute exacerbations of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). However, antimicrobial resistance presents a challenge for the ongoing and future management of CRS patients. Objective This study aims to examine the current and past microbiological yield and antimicrobial resistance profile in a ...

Detection of Clarithromycin-Resistant Helicobacter pylori in Stool Samples [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2003
ABSTRACT The recognition of the role of Helicobacter pylori in gastric diseases has led to the widespread use of antibiotics in the eradication of this pathogen. The most advocated therapy, triple therapy, often includes clarithromycin.

Exploring the Molecular Mechanisms of Macrolide Resistance in Laboratory Mutant Helicobacter pylori

Antibiotics
Resistance to clarithromycin, a macrolide antibiotic used in the first-line treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection, is the most important cause of treatment failure. Although most cases of clarithromycin resistance in H.

Rapid prediction of inducible clarithromycin resistance in Mycobacterium abscessus

Molecular and Cellular Probes, 2015
We have developed a single tube TaqMan(®) real-time PCR assay that differentiates the full-length and truncated erm(41) gene to predict inducible resistance to clarithromycin in Mycobacterium abscessus. A study of 87 clinical isolates found this assay to be 90.8% concordant to conventional drug susceptibility testing results for the prediction of ...
