the aim of this study is to prepare novel sorbitol based extended release tablets by melt dispersion method using carbamazepine as a model drug. carbamazepine was melted along with sugar alcohol to get melt dispersion granules (mgds) and was characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (dsc), powder x-ray diffractometry (xrd) and solubility study. the physical and chemical parameters of m...

background and objectives: klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for up to 10% of nosocomial infections. the emergence and spread of multidrug resistant k. pneumoniae , mostly due to the production of extended-spec- trum β-lactamases (esbl) and carbapenemases, is often responsible for antibiotic treatment failure of these infections. we compared the antibiotic resistanc...

background and objective: nowadays, the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) producing strains in serratia genus causes the emergence of resistance to many antibiotics. so, the lack of proper diagnosis of esbls strains can lead to failure in the treatment. the objective of the present study was to investigate esbls production in serratia strains isolated from the clinical blood sa...

objective(s): drug resistant acinetobacter baumannii have emerged as a major problem in many hospitals and intensive care units. various types of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (esbls) are responsible for resistance to beta- lactam antibiotics in different parts of the world. the objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of integron class1 (int 1) and esbl types per-1, per-2 an...

background: in this study, specific measures of extended nursing services and its values on patients with bladder cancer after endoscopic bladder electrosection were examined. methods:   sixty-six patients diagnosed with bladder cancer in laiwu people's hospital(no. 001, xueyehu street, changshao road, laiwu, shandong, china) between february 2012 and february 2014, and underwent endoscopic bla...

conclusions the results of this study phenotypically and genotypically confirmed the high frequency of esbl-producing strains, such as the ctx-m and ctx-m-1 genes, among enterobacteriaceae isolates in our region. therefore, use of antibiotic susceptibility testing for the detection of esbl isolates prior to the prescription of beta-lactam antibiotics is recommended. this could help prevent the ...

conclusions this study was the first report of the emergence of the plasmid-encoded blaoxa genes among e. cloacae isolates in iran. these findings highlight the need to use appropriate infection control policy and rational antibiotic therapy to reduce further spread of these resistant bacteria in the studied hospitals. results in total, 48 esbl-producing isolates (58.5%) were positive for the b...
