Scaffold Modifications in Erythromycin Macrolide Antibiotics. A Chemical Minireview

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Clarithromycin and congeners are important antibacterial members of the erythromycin A 14-membered macrocyclic lactone family. The macrolide scaffold consists of a multifunctional core that carries both chemically reactive and non-reactive substituents ...

Ceftiofur use and antimicrobial stewardship in the horse

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 944-961, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Equine practitioners require recommendations that support antimicrobial stewardship and avoid generating resistance to medically important antibiotics. This review examines current inadequacies in antimicrobial stewardship standards within the veterinary community, related to antimicrobial categorisation and prescribing practices.

Antimicrobial prescribing and antimicrobial resistance surveillance in equine practice

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 494-505, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an increasingly serious threat to human and animal health, therefore responsible use of antimicrobials in equine practice is vital. There is a need to have accurate, up to date data on antimicrobial prescribing in equine practice in the UK.

Determination of In Vitro Antimicrobial Susceptibility for Lefamulin (Pleuromutilin) for Ureaplasma Spp. and Mycoplasma hominis

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Lefamulin is the first of the pleuromutilin class of antimicrobials to be available for therapeutic use in humans. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of lefamulin were determined by microbroth dilution for 90 characterised clinical isolates (25 Ureaplasma

A framework for evaluation of on‐farm mastitis diagnostics in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 142-152, April 2023., 2023
Numerous culture‐based diagnostics are available on the Australian and international markets for on‐farm detection of bacterial pathogens in milk. Use of such diagnostics may provide an opportunity to improve the prudent use of antimicrobials in udder health management. Farms are low‐resource settings in terms of diagnostic microbiology capacity.

From gut to mud: dissemination of antimicrobial resistance between animal and agricultural niches

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 3290-3306, August 2022., 2022
Summary With increasing reports on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in humans, animals and the environment, we are at risk of returning to a pre‐antibiotic era. Therefore, AMR is recognized as one of the major global health threats of this century. Antibiotics are used extensively in farming systems to treat and prevent infections in food animals or to ...

The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic paradigm for antimicrobial drugs in veterinary medicine: Recent advances and critical appraisal

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 172-200, March 2021., 2021
Abstract Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modelling is the initial step in the semi‐mechanistic approach for optimizing dosage regimens for systemically acting antimicrobial drugs (AMDs). Numerical values of PK/PD indices are used to predict dose and dosing interval on a rational basis followed by confirmation in clinical trials. The value of PK/
