First time identification of Pandoraea sputorum from a patient with cystic fibrosis in Argentina: a case report [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Pandoraea species are considered emerging pathogens in the context of cystic fibrosis (CF) and are difficult to identify by conventional biochemical methods. These multidrug resistant bacteria remain poorly understood particularly in terms of

Evaluation of a Product Intended for Microbiological Control in Animal Production, and Its Combination With Halquinol

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Activo Liquid and Halquinol inhibit Salmonella and Escherichia coli in culture media. Activo Liquid exhibits bactericidal action, whereas HA is bacteriostatic, and their combination results in positive or indifferent interactions. This combination effectively inhibits E. coli throughout digestion simulation, thus reducing the required concentrations of

Ursolic acid inhibits colistin efflux and curtails colistin resistant Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

AMB Express, 2019
Colistin resistance in Enterobacteriaceae especially Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli is driving the evolution of pan drug resistant strains. Screening a library of 13 plant nutraceuticals led to the identification of acetyl shikonin and ursolic acid, which exhibited synergy with colistin against extremely drug resistant (XDR) clinical ...

Combining Colistin with Furanone C-30 Rescues Colistin Resistance of Gram-Negative Bacteria in Vitro and in Vivo

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
The spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) has led to serious public health problems worldwide. Colistin, as a “last resort” for the treatment of MDR bacterial infections, has been used significantly in recent years and has led ...

Porin‐Independent Uptake of Small Molecule Antibiotics Facilitated by Escherichia coli Outer Membrane Vesicles

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) can enhance antibiotic delivery into Gram‐negative bacteria by bypassing porin‐dependent uptake. Encapsulation of imipenem in OMVs significantly increased its effectiveness against multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates, highlighting OMVs as a promising platform for overcoming permeability ...

Oxygenated Solanapyrone Analogs From Nigrospora sp. IQ‐064, a Mangrove Associated Fungus

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two new oxygenated solanapyrone analogues, nigrosporapyrone E (1) and nigrosporapyrone F (2), were isolated from Nigrospora sp. strain IQ‐064, a fungus associated with the bark of black mangrove (Avicennia germinans L.), along with seven known compounds.
