Antibiotics, Volume 12, Issue 8

The objective of this study was to evaluate collateral sensitivity and cross-resistance of antibiotic-induced resistant Salmonella Typhimurium to various antibiotics. S. Typhimurium ATCC 19585 (STWT) was exposed to ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, kanamyci...

This study evaluated the antimicrobial effect of toothpastes containing 200 ppm fluoride (200F), xylitol (X, 16%), erythritol (E, 4%), and sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP, 0.25%), alone or in different associations, against Streptococcus mutans (SM), La...

There have been multiple reports of eye infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, with increasing evidence of ineffective treatment outcomes from existing therapies. With respect to corneal infections, the most commonly used antibiotics (fl...

The rising demand for minimally processed, natural, and healthier food products has led to the search for alternative and multifunctional bioactive food components. Therefore, the present study focuses on the functional proprieties of a peptide fract...

Biotransformations are reactions mediated by microorganisms, such as fungi. These bioreactions have high chemo- and stereoselectivity on organic substrates and can be applied in the search for new bioactive compounds. In this study, acanthoic acid (A...

The prevalence and persistent outbreaks of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella in low-income countries have received growing attention among the public and scientific community. Notably, the excessive use of antibiotics in chicken feed for the purpo...

The growing threat of antibiotic resistance is a significant global health challenge that has intensified in recent years. The burden of antibiotic resistance on public health is augmented due to its multifaceted nature, as well as the slow-paced and...

Bone and joint infections (BJIs) caused by multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria are becoming a concern due to limited therapeutic options. Although not approved for these indications, an ever-growing amount of evidence supports the efficacy and...

Enterococci are often used in probiotics but can also cause nosocomial infections. As such, enterococcal consumption may have beneficial health effects, but a thorough evaluation of virulence absence and risk of antibiotic resistance spread is needed...

Multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB) remain a significant threat to humanity, resulting in over 1.2 million deaths per year. To combat this problem effectively, the development of therapeutic agents with diverse mechanisms of action is crucial. Antimi...
