Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Metacetamol Derivatives with Hydrazone Moiety as Anticancer and Antimicrobial Agents.

By exploiting the wide biological potential of the hydrazone scaffold, a series of hydrazone derivatives were synthesized, starting from N-(3-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide (metacetamol). The structures of the compounds were determined using IR, H and C-NMR, and mass spectroscopic methods. The obtained molecules (3 a-j) were evaluated for their anticancer potential against MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines.

Exometabolomic analysis of susceptible and multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Multidrug resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains have recently become one of the major public health concerns worldwide leading to difficulties in selecting appropriate antibiotic treatment. Thus, it is important to elucidate the characteristics of MDR isolates. Herein, we aimed to determine the unique exometabolome profile of P.

First Detection of Isolate Co-Harboring Fosfomycin Resistance Gene and ctx-m Among Gram Negative Urine Isolates in a Turkish Hospital.

The most common gram-negative pathogens in urinary tract infections are and . Therapy that is often empirical relies on local antibiotic resistance data, hence monitorization of antimicrobial resistance periodically in each hospital is a requirement. In this study, antibiotic susceptibility profiles of consecutive urinary isolates ( [ = 235] and [ = 56]) of adult patients collected between February 2018 and February 2019 from inpatients in Hacettepe University Hospital were assessed.

Resistance and heteroresistance to colistin among clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii.

Colistin is one of the most effective alternatives for treating Acinetobacter baumannii infections. The aim of this study was to determine colistin resistance and heteroresistance rates in A. baumannii from clinical samples in Hacettepe University clinical microbiology laboratory between June 2016 and January 2017.

Presence of OXA-48 Gene in a Clinical Isolate of .

Lactobacilli are part of the microbiota and are also used as probiotics. However, in recent years they have been associated with invasive infections, especially bacteremia. spp.
