In vitro antimicrobial activity of a gel containing antimicrobial peptide AMP2041, chlorhexidine digluconate and Tris‐EDTA on clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from canine otitis

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 391-e98, October 2016., 2016
Background– Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) may cause suppurative otitis externa with severe inflammation and ulceration in dogs. Multidrug resistance is commonly reported for this organism, creating a difficult therapeutic challenge. Objective– The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of a gel containing 0.5 µg/mL of ...

Performance of Quantification of Modified Hodge Test: An Evaluation with Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase‐Producing Enterobacteriaceae Isolates

BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Modified Hodge Test (MHT) has been suggested as screening tests for carbapenemases, but concerns regarding its difficult interpretation and common false‐positive results obtained in the presence of other β‐lactamases have been noted. This study aimed to quantify the enhanced growth formed by the indicator strain and thus evaluate the performance of a ...

Implementation of a Computerized Decision Support System to Improve the Appropriateness of Antibiotic Therapy Using Local Microbiologic Data

BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
A prospective quasi‐experimental study was undertaken in 218 patients with suspicion of nosocomial infection hospitalized in a polyvalent ICU where a new electronic device (GERB) has been designed for antibiotic prescriptions. Two GERB‐based applications were developed to provide local resistance maps (LRMs) and preliminary microbiological reports with

Use of saline‐soaked bacterial culture swabs increases bacterial recovery in dogs with superficial bacterial folliculitis

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 621-629, October 2025.
Background – Canine superficial bacterial folliculitis (SBF) is a common recurrent condition with a growing requirement for culture and susceptibility as a consequence of increased antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial stewardship. Different opinions persist about the ideal technique for culture sample acquisition, which varies with lesion ...

Experimental Drought Suppresses Amphibian Pathogen Yet Intensifies Transmission and Disrupts Protective Skin Microbiome

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study used ecologically realistic enclosures with pumpkin toadlets to simulate short‐term drought conditions in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Drought reduced the overall levels of a harmful amphibian fungus, but it also disrupted their protective skin‐associated bacteria and caused the toadlets to cluster in wet areas of the enclosures, which ...

Comparison of the in vitro antibiofilm activities of otic cleansers against canine otitis externa pathogens

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 148-158, April 2025.
Background – Biofilm production by canine otitis externa (COE) pathogens and resistance development to multiple antimicrobials are commonly reported problems in veterinary practice. The use of adjuvants to disrupt biofilms may be a viable adjunctive therapy.
