Fructose-enhanced reduction of bacterial growth on nanorough surfaces
Patients on mechanical ventilators for extended periods of time often face the risk of developing ventilator-associated pneumonia. During the ventilation process, patients incapable of breathing are intubated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) endotracheal tubes (ETTs). PVC ETTs provide surfaces where bacteria can attach and proliferate from the contaminated oropharyngeal space to the sterile bronch...
متن کاملAccelerated detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis genes essential for bacterial survival in guinea pigs, compared with mice.
BACKGROUND Mouse and guinea pig models have been used to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis mutants attenuated for survival. However, unlike mice, M. tuberculosis-infected guinea pigs form caseating granulomas, which may simulate human disease more closely. METHODS We used designer arrays for defined mutant analysis, a high-throughput subtractive competition assay, for genotypically defined ...
متن کاملAccelerated ST-segment reduction after thrombolytic therapy with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) compared to urokinase.
Effects of therapy with urokinase (UK) and with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) were compared in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). To achieve homogenous therapeutic conditions the comparison was restricted to patients having their first AMI and to cases of clinically successful thrombolytic therapy (defined by non-invasive criteria, such as a 50% decrease in eleva...
متن کاملFrame Reduction as Compared with Manipulative Reduction
With the object of assessing the results of various methods of treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip used in this centre from 1920 to 1950, a clinical and radiographic review of all available cases was undertaken, the data being grouped according to the initial method of reduction. The results of treatment in this analysis have been assessed according to two criteria : 1) quality of th...
متن کاملAccelerated bacterial inactivation obtained by HIPIMS sputtering on low cost surfaces with concomitant reduction in the metal/semiconductor content3 DOI: 10.1039/c3ra41528g www.rsc.org/advances
Novel ultrathin TiO2–Cu nanoparticulate films sputtered by highly ionized pulsed plasma magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS) lead to faster bacterial inactivation compared to more traditional sputtering approaches with an appreciable metal saving. HIPIMS sputtering induces a strong interaction of the TiO2–Cu-ions (M ) with the polyester surface due to the high fraction and density of M-ions interactin...
