Scaffold Modifications in Erythromycin Macrolide Antibiotics. A Chemical Minireview
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
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
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.

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

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/
