Determination of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration of Liposomes: A Novel Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
The rate of development of antibiotic resistance by microorganisms is pretty high compared to the discovery of new antibiotics. Therefore new formulations have come up in order to avoid resistance, either through increasing the availability or penetration of the already existing drugs(Arias, 2013). Delivery of antimicrobials or other compounds in the form of liposome is gaining more attention (Chattopadhyay, 2013, Rathore et al., 2011, Alhariri et al., 2013). At present there are no standard broth microdilution methods for determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of liposomal drugs, coloured or opaque compounds as well as liquids with suspended particles having antimicrobial activity.

Determination of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Hygromycin B in CHO cells
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are considered as the most commonly used host for industrial manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hygromycin B in both CHO-DG44 and CHO-S cells since hygromycin B resistance cassette can be used for future selection of gene expression in CHO cells. The minimum inhibitory conce...
متن کاملDetermination of antibiotic susceptibility and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the Propionibacterium acnes to the prevalent antibiotics in the treatment of Acne vulgaris
ABSTRACTPropionibacterium acnes is propounded as one of the significant factors in occurrence of acne. Today, due to development of the antibiotic resistance, most of the acne treatments are faced with failure. In order to determine the antibiotic resistance of the P.acnes strains isolated from the patients with acne, this research has been carried out. 70 samples collected using microbial cult...

Abstract Background and objectives: the increasing use of antibiotics, especially the third generation cephalosporins, is an important factor in the spread of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. The main reason for the development of resistance phenotype such as Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamas (ESBL) is the extensive use of broad-spectrum cephalosporins. In phenotypic survey, the Phenotyping c...

Background and Objectives: With regard to the hazards of nitrite, application of natural preservatives in order to reduce the microbial load of meat and meat products is increasing. Owing to their anti-bacterial properties, red barberry and the dried residue of red grape could be suitable replacers for nitrite. Materials and Methods: Agar dilution method was employed in order to determine th...
