AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The in vitro activities of tigecycline and other antimicrobials against 51 isolates of Nocardia spp. were evaluated. MIC(90)s and MIC ranges were as follows: tigecycline, 4 and < or =0.06 to 8 mg/liter, respectively; minocycline, 2 and < or =0.06 to 2 mg/liter, respectively; linezolid, 1 and < or =0.06 to 2 mg/liter, respectively; moxifloxacin, 2 and < or =0.06 to >64 mg/liter, respectively; ertapenem, 32 and < or =0.06->64 mg/liter, respectively; imipenem, 2 and < or =0.06 to >64 mg/liter, respectively; meropenem, 8 and < or =0.06 to >64 mg/liter, respectively; amikacin, 1 and < or =0.06 to 32 mg/liter, respectively; and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, 1/19 and < or =0.5/9.5 to >2/38 mg/liter, respectively.

RNA-seq Analysis Reveals Mitochondrial and Cuticular Protein Genes Are Associated with Phosphine Resistance in the Rusty Grain Beetle (Coleoptera:Laemophloeidae).

The rusty grain beetle, Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Stephens), is a serious pest of stored grain, which has developed high levels of resistance to phosphine. In this study, five geographically distant populations of C. ferrugineus had been collected in China, specifically in granaries where phosphine fumigant is used for pest control, and they showed a high resistance ratio up to 1,907 (LC50 = 21.

Background: Immunosuppression therapy is ineffective at preventing bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), primarily a disease of the small airways (SAs). Our previous reports show increased senescent CD28null T and natural killer T (NKT)-like cells in the peripheral blood of patients with BOS and increased cytotoxic, proinflammatory lymphocytes in the SAs. We hypothesized that the cytotoxic, proinflammatory lymphocytes in the SAs would be steroid-resistant senescent CD28null lymphocytes.

, the causal agent of blackleg of canola (), can be managed with pyraclostrobin and other strobilurin fungicides. Their frequent application, however, poses a risk for the development of insensitivity in fungal populations. A collection of single-spore isolates recovered from infected canola stubble in Alberta, Canada, in 2016 was evaluated for its pyraclostrobin sensitivity.

The aim of this work was to describe optimized dosing regimens of ceftolozane-tazobactam for critically ill patients receiving continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). We conducted a prospective observational pharmacokinetic study in adult critically ill patients with clinical indications for ceftolozane-tazobactam and CVVHDF. Unbound drug concentrations were measured from serial prefilter blood, postfilter blood, and ultrafiltrate samples by a chromatographic assay.

Combination therapy including colistin and a carbapenem has been found to be associated with lower mortality in the treatment of bloodstream infections (BSI) due to KPC-producing when the isolates show a meropenem or imipenem MIC of <16 mg/liter. However, the optimal treatment of BSI caused by colistin- and high-level carbapenem-resistant KPC-producing is unknown. A prospective cohort study including episodes of bacteremia caused by colistin-resistant and high-level meropenem-resistant (MIC ≥ 64 mg/liter) KPC-producing diagnosed from July 2012 to February 2016 was performed.
