Propofol emulsion and bacterial contamination.
Package insert information provided with propofol advises prompt administration following its drawing-up. This study has examined the delays which occur between drawing-up and administration of propofol in clinical practice and the incidence of bacterial contamination occurring under such conditions. Two hundred and fifty-four clinical uses of propofol were examined. Mean elapsed times (range) ...
متن کاملThe growth of bacteria in infusion drugs: propofol 2% supports growth when remifentanil and pantoprazole do not.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Contamination risks of propofol 2%, remifentanil, and pantoprazole; and in vitro effects of these drugs on the growth of common infective agents in intensive care units were evaluated. METHODS For detection of contamination risk, drugs were prepared ready to use under intensive care unit conditions, were tested. Effects of these three drugs on bacterial growth were a...
متن کاملInhibition of bacterial growth by different mixtures of propofol and thiopentone.
Propofol is, as a result of its formulation, an ideal bacterial and yeast culture medium. An outbreak of sepsis in humans and an increase in wound infections in dogs has been ascribed to the use of propofol. It has been previously reported that a 1:1 mixture of propofol and thiopentone has bactericidal properties. This study was undertaken to determine if further serial mixtures of propofol and...
متن کاملPlastome-encoded bacterial ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RubisCO) supports photosynthesis and growth in tobacco.
The efficiency with which crop plants use their resources of light, water, and fertilizer nitrogen could be enhanced by replacing their CO(2)-fixing enzyme, d-ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase (RubisCO), with more efficient forms, such as those found in some algae, for example. This important challenge has been frustrated by failure of all previous attempts to substitute a fully f...
متن کاملPrimordial soup was edible: abiotically produced Miller-Urey mixture supports bacterial growth
Sixty years after the seminal Miller-Urey experiment that abiotically produced a mixture of racemized amino acids, we provide a definite proof that this primordial soup, when properly cooked, was edible for primitive organisms. Direct admixture of even small amounts of Miller-Urey mixture strongly inhibits E. coli bacteria growth due to the toxicity of abundant components, such as cyanides. How...
