Penicillin Allergy in China: Consequences of Inappropriate Skin Testing Practices and Policies

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
There are significant variations in practice and implementation of penicillin skin testing within China and worldwide. Indiscriminate and ‘pre‐emptive’ skin testing practices in China significantly exacerbate penicillin allergy mislabelling, and global cooperation for advancing modern penicillin allergy diagnosis is urgently needed.

Quinolone Resistance Reversion by Targeting the SOS Response

mBio, 2017
Suppression of the SOS response has been postulated as a therapeutic strategy for potentiating antimicrobial agents. We aimed to evaluate the impact of its suppression on reversing resistance using a model of isogenic strains of Escherichia coli ...

ToF-SIMS data analysis of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 biofilms [PDF]

arXiv
Analysis of bacterial biofilms is particularly challenging and important with diverse applications from systems biology to biotechnology. Among the variety of techniques that have been applied, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) has many promising features in studying the surface characteristics of biofilms.

Antibiotic‐Induced Dysbiosis of the Gut Microbiota Shifts Host Tryptophan Metabolism and Increases the Susceptibility of Mice to Pulmonary Infection With Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Immunology, EarlyView.
Antibiotic‐induced dysbiosis of the gut microbiota shifts host tryptophan metabolism and impairs the innate immune response during Pseudomonas aeruginosa pulmonary infection. (A) Eubiosis: During eubiosis, the intestinal microbiota metabolises tryptophan into indole metabolites, which keeps tryptophan levels within normal serum concentrations. However,

Validation and Evaluation of Lateral Flow Tests for the Detection of Antimicrobial Residues on Poultry Feathers

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistence of antimicrobial drugs (AMDs) administered to poultry is longer in feathers than in edible tissues. Hence, poultry feathers are a suitable matrix to investigate historical exposure contributing to antimicrobial resistance, since current detection methods are either non‐specific or highly technical and costly.

Evidence for a Role of Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus gallolyticus in the Aetiology of Exudative Cloacitis in the Critically Endangered Kākāpō (Strigops habroptilus)

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The kākāpō is a critically endangered flightless parrot which suffers from exudative cloacitis, a debilitating disease resulting in inflammation of the vent margin or cloaca. Despite this disease emerging over 20 years ago, the cause of exudative cloacitis remains elusive.

The effect of combined sewer overflows on the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes and bacteria in the James River [PDF]

, 2017
Antibiotic resistance is a major threat to human health. Clinical situations are the main focus for antibiotic resistance research, but understanding the spread of resistance in the environment is also vital.
