Phenotypic Detection of Hemin-Inducible Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole Heteroresistance in Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SXT) is a valuable second-line antimicrobial agent to treat methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections. Discrepancies between various antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods for SXT susceptibility in S ...

Prevalence of plasmid-encoded carbapenemases in multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli from patients with urinary tract infection in northern Iran [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2020
Objective(s): Resistance to carbapenems as the last line for controlling resistant bacteria is increasing due to production of carbapenemase. The aim of this study was to detect the plasmid-encoded carbapenemases using phenotypic methods and multiplex ...

Linear rotationally invariant kurtosis measures from double diffusion encoding MRI

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance Imaging
To characterize the complete set of linear rotationally invariant kurtosis measures provided by double diffusion encoding (DDE) MRI, show their utility in distinguishing different types of multiple Gaussian compartment (MGC) models, and demonstrate simplified acquisition and analysis schemes for their estimation.The lowest order novel information ...

A New Source of Reaction - Diffusion Coupling in Confined Systems due to Temperature Inhomogeneity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Diffusion is often accompanied by a reaction or sorption which can induce temperature inhomogeneities. Monte Carlo simulations of Lennard-Jones atoms in zeolite NaCaA are reported with a hot zone presumed to be created by a reaction. Our simulations show

Validation and noise robustness assessment of microscopic anisotropy estimation with clinically feasible double diffusion encoding MRI [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2019
PurposeDouble diffusion encoding (DDE) MRI enables the estimation of microscopic diffusion anisotropy, yielding valuable information on tissue microstructure. A recent study proposed that the acquisition of rotationally invariant DDE metrics, typically obtained using a spherical “5‐design,” could be greatly simplified by assuming Gaussian diffusion ...

High prevalence and characterization of extended-spectrum ß-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae in Chadian hospitals

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) represent a major problem in the management of nosocomial infections. However, ESBL-PE are not systematically monitored in African countries.
