Detection of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumonia using two Sensitivity Methods

Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2015
Carbapenems, potent β-lactams antibiotics, were initially used as last-resort treatments for severe Gram-negative bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumonia. These bacteria were considered one of Enterbacteriaceae family associated with pneumonia and urinary

Advanced Dental Composite Technology via Bisilanized Dual‐Action Nanofillers for Biofilm Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multimodal research strategy has led to the development of an innovative resin‐based composite (RBC) with dual antibacterial action. The S_CM‐RBC formula showed strong antibiofilm activity, excellent mechanical strength, and biosafety. It effectively controlled oral bacteria in prevention of caries recurrence, and maintained pulp health in a rat ...

Bronchoscopic Microbial Diagnosis in Non-Responding & Non-Resolving Pneumonia

Proceedings, 2021
Introduction: Pneumonia is a common and potentially serious illness associated with considerable morbidity and mortality, especially in the elderly and those with notable comorbidities. More than 100 microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites) can

Infections Complicating Orthotopic Liver Transplantation: A Study Emphasizing Graft-Related Septicemia [PDF]

, 1976
In 93 recipients of 102 orthotopic liver homografts, the incidence of bacteremia or fungemia exceeded 70%. The graft itself was usually an entry site for systemic infection after both immunologic and nonimmunologic parenchymal injury, especially if there

Green Fuel Combustion Synthesis of CeO2 and Ag/CeO2 Nanoparticles for Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Applications

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silver‐doped cerium oxide nanoparticles (Ag/CeO2 NPs) were synthesized using Ricinus communis seed extract as a bio‐derived fuel in a solution combustion method. The combustion reaction, carried out at 450°C with AgNO3 and (NH4)2[Ce (NO3)6] as metal precursors, produced CeO2 and Ag/CeO2 NPs.

Myeloid-related protein-14 contributes to protective immunity in gram-negative pneumonia derived sepsis.

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Klebsiella (K.) pneumoniae is a common cause of pneumonia-derived sepsis. Myeloid related protein 8 (MRP8, S100A8) and MRP14 (S100A9) are the most abundant cytoplasmic proteins in neutrophils.

Yeast-derived biosynthesis of silver/silver chloride nanoparticles and their antiproliferative activity against bacteria [PDF]

, 2016
Here, we provide the first evidence of yeast strains assisted Ag/AgCl-NPs production in vitro. The formed nanoparticles were characterized by spectroscopic and electron microscopy approaches. UV-vis supported the biosynthesis. TEM analysis evidenced that

Perioperative Piperacillin/Tazobactam Reduces Early Onset SSI in Preirradiated Patients Undergoing Microvascular Head and Neck Reconstruction

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Preirradiated patients undergoing microvascular head and neck reconstruction for tumor recurrence or osteoradionecrosis (ORN) face surgical site infection (SSI) rates exceeding 30%. The impact of perioperative extended‐spectrum antibiotic coverage remains unclear. This study hypothesizes that calculated prophylaxis with piperacillin/
