The importance of sample size in the determination of a flock-level antimicrobial resistance profile for Escherichia coli in broilers

open access: yes, 2011
Determining herd- or flock-specific antimicrobial resistance profiles is important to guide therapeutic use of antimicrobials and to assess risk factors for the development and spread of antimicrobial resistance.

Emerging paradigms in anti-infective drug design. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The need for new drugs to treat microbial infections is pressing. The great progress made in the middle part of the twentieth Century was followed by a period of relative inactivity as the medical needs relating to infectious disease in the wealthier ...

The Gull (Chroicocephalus brunnicephalus) as an Environmental Bioindicator and Reservoir for Antibiotic Resistance on the Coastlines of the Bay of Bengal

open access: yes, 2014
The presence and frequency of multiresistant bacteria in wild birds act as indicators of the environmental contamination of antibiotic resistance. To explore the rate of contamination mediated by Escherichia coli, 150 fecal samples from the brown-headed ...

Updates on microbial resistance to drugs

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Microbiology Research, 2012
The treatment of bacterial infections and other microbial infections is increasingly complicated by the ability of bacteria and other microbes to develop resistance to antimicrobial agents. Microbial resistance to antimicrobial agents or chemotherapeutic agents had been attributed to their ability to bypass or overcome the various mechanisms by which ...

Predicting allostery and microbial drug resistance with molecular simulations

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2018
Beta-lactamase enzymes mediate the most common forms of gram-negative antibiotic resistance affecting clinical treatment. They also constitute an excellent model system for the difficult problem of understanding how allosteric mutations can augment catalytic activity of already-competent enzymes.

Early Detection of Antibiotic Resistance in Positive Blood Cultures: A Study from a Tertiary Care Center in India [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Laboratory Journal, 2023
Background and objectives: Conventional culture and sensitivity methods take around 48 hours to generate antibiotic sensitivity results after a blood culture is flagged as positive by automated systems.

Fungicide-driven evolution and molecular basis of multidrug resistance in field populations of the grey mould fungus Botrytis cinerea

open access: yes, 2009
The grey mould fungus Botrytis cinerea causes losses of commercially important fruits, vegetables and ornamentals worldwide. Fungicide treatments are effective for disease control, but bear the risk of resistance development.

Antimicrobial and Efflux Pump Inhibitory Activity of Caffeoylquinic Acids from Artemisia absinthium against Gram-Positive Pathogenic Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Traditional antibiotics are increasingly suffering from the emergence of multidrug resistance amongst pathogenic bacteria leading to a range of novel approaches to control microbial infections being investigated as potential alternative ...

Antimicrobial Drug Resistance in Blood Culture Isolates at a Tertiary Hospital, Uganda

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We summarize antimicrobial drug resistance (AMR) patterns from blood cultures at a tertiary hospital in Uganda. High rates of resistance to first-line antibiotic drugs were observed among Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative organisms.
