Multidrug-resistant Bacterial Profile and Patterns for Wound Infections in Nongovernmental Hospitals of Jordan

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2021
Globally, multidrug-resistant bacteria affects wound infections, both hospital-acquired infections and community-acquired infections. The main isolates cultured from 607 subjects with wound infections were methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ...

Microbubble‐Controlled Delivery of Biofilm‐Targeting Nanoparticles to Treat MRSA Infection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, an effective strategy using microbubble (MB)‐controlled delivery of biofilm‐targeting nanoparticles (BTNs) for removal and therapy of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) biofilm infections is introduced. In vivo delivery of MB with BTN is demonstrated to silence key bacterial genes involved in biofilm formation (icaA), bacterial ...

Systematic Comparison of Commercial Uranyl‐Alternative Stains for Negative‐ and Positive‐Staining Transmission Electron Microscopy of Organic Specimens

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Negative‐ and positive‐staining TEM is essential for rapid nanometer‐resolution characterization of organic specimens ranging from nanoparticles to cells. Uranyl salts are widely used negative‐/positive‐stains but are radioactive and highly toxic to users and the environment.

Mixed community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Infectious Disease Reports, 2007
Although mixed infections are known to be clinically relevant in conditions such as nosocomial pneumonia and ventilator-related pneumonia, it is increasingly recognized that a substantial number of community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections may also be attributed to more than one pathogenic organism. A better definition of the true incidence

Immunosuppressive Formulations for Immunological Defense against Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel subcutaneous formulation combining alpha‐ketoglutarate, glycolysis inhibitor PFK15, and a myelin peptide reduces inflammation in a mouse TBI model. This formulation promotes regulatory immune cells, enhances autophagy, and improves motor function, suggesting its potential as a prophylactic immunosuppressive therapy to mitigate TBI‐induced ...

State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.
