Antibiotic Resistance of Ocular Surface Flora With Repeated Use of a Topical Antibiotic After Intravitreal Injection

Dissemination of an antibiotic resistance plasmid in hospital patient flora.

The 2'' aminoglycoside nucleotidyltransferase, AAD (2''), which adenylates gentamicin, tobramycin, and kanamycin, became prevalent over several months in multiple strains and species of Enterobacteriaceae isolated at one hospital. Eight plasmids with the gene for this enzyme purified from different strains and species isolated at different times had similar EcoRI digestion fragments, indicating...

introduction: infection is the most common complication of burn and one of the most important causes of mortality and morbidity in burned patients. topical antibiotics have important role in prevention and treatment of infection and reduction of mortality in burned patients. increases of use of antibiotics cause microbial resistance. methods: to determine microbial resistance to three topical a...

Controlling antibiotic use and resistance.

Antibacterial activity of REP8839, a new antibiotic for topical use.

REP8839 is a novel methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MetS) inhibitor with potent antibacterial activity against clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, and other clinically important gram-positive bacteria but little activity against gram-negative bacteria. All isolates of S. aureus, including strains resistant to methicillin, mupirocin, vancomycin, and linezolid were susce...
