Isoniazid resistance of exponentially growing Mycobacterium smegmatis biofilm culture.
Biofilm growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis was found to be unaffected at an isoniazid concentration that inhibited growth of planktonic bacilli (i.e. at isoniazid minimum inhibitory concentration=10 microg ml(-1)). Significant growth (50% of drug-free control) of biofilms was observed at up to 40 microg ml(-1) and the MIC for biofilm growth showed an increase to up to 80 microg ml(-1) isoniazid....
متن کاملWhy does human culture increase exponentially?
Historical records show that culture can increase exponentially in time, e.g., in number of poems, musical works, scientific discoveries. We model how human capacities for creativity and cultural transmission may make such an increase possible, suggesting that: (1) creativity played a major role at the origin of human culture and for its accumulation throughout history, because cultural transmi...
متن کاملIsoniazid resistance in murine leprosy.
Los autores han informado previamente, que en ratollcillos infectados por via intravenosa con M. leprae murium, y tratados con isoniazid continuamente por 180 dias, hubo una supresion casi total en I~ multiplicacion de los microorganismos. Ahora se ha descubierto, sinembargo, que si el tratamiento se continua indefinidamente estos ani males muer en antes de un ano con tantos bacilos en los orga...
متن کاملTransduction of isoniazid susceptibility-resistance and streptomycin resistance in mycobacteria.
Transduction of resistance to isoniazid and streptomycin as well as susceptibility to isoniazid in Mycobacterium smegmatis SN2 has been demonstrated. A method has been described for the selection of isoniazid-susceptible variants after transduction of susceptibility.
متن کاملElucidating Isoniazid Resistance Using Molecular Modeling
The continuing rise in tuberculosis incidence and the problem of drug resistance strains have prompted the research on new drug candidates and the mechanism of drug resistance. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation (MD) were performed to study the binding of isoniazid onto the active site of Mycobacterium tuberculosis enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (InhA) in an attempt to ad...
