Assessment of the last-resort antibiotics against Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase/carbapenemase and biofilm producer Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from hospitalized patients in intensive care units (ICUs), Iran [PDF]

Archives of Razi Institute
Pneumonia caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) is considered one of the most common causes of hospital-acquired infections. We aimed to investigate the activity of tigecycline, azithromycin, and colistin against K.

MultNAT HPV16/18 Assay: A Simple, Rapid, and Low‐Cost Polymerase Chain Reaction Method for the Detection of HPV16 and HPV18 Suitable for Point‐of‐Care Testing

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Persistent high‐risk HPV infection can lead to the development of precancerous lesions, potentially progressing to invasive cancer. HPV status serves not only as a prognostic marker for squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) like oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCC) but also significantly influences clinical management and treatment ...

Hypervirulent K. Pneumoniae Secretes More and More Active Iron-Acquisition Molecules than “Classical” K. Pneumoniae Thereby Enhancing its Virulence

PLoS ONE, 2011
A new hypervirulent (hypermucoviscous) clinical variant of Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) has emerged over the last decade. Our goal is to identify new mechanisms, which increase the virulence hvKP compared to "classic" K. pneumoniae (cKP).Various growth assays were performed in human ascites, human serum, and laboratory medium with the hvKP strain hvKP1

Tracheal wash culture is not associated with bronchial infection, remodelling or inflammation in horses with asthma

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antimicrobials are commonly prescribed for the treatment of equine asthma, despite limited evidence supporting their use. Tracheal wash (TW) bacterial culture results are known to influence antimicrobial prescription decisions. Objectives To determine whether a positive TW bacterial culture in horses with asthma is associated with ...

Clerocidin interacts with the cleavage complex of Streptococcus pneumoniae topoisomerase IV to induce selective irreversible DNA damage [PDF]

, 2006
Clerocidin (CL), a diterpenoid natural product, alkylates DNA through its epoxide moiety and exhibits both anticancer and antibacterial activities. We have examined CLaction in the presence of topoisomerase IV from Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Diagnosis of bacteraemia in neonatal foals using 16S rRNA high‐throughput sequencing

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sepsis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in foals. Early diagnosis can improve outcome but is complicated by non‐specific clinical signs and delayed confirmation of infection via blood culture. Molecular assays represent a rapid and more sensitive alternative.
