We studied the effectiveness of anti-tuberculosis vaccination with BCG in mice of inbred strains and F1 hybrids (highly resistant to tuberculosis infection) that represent a wide range of genetically determined differences in susceptibility to infection with virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The greatest relative effect was found in susceptible mice, with the exception of highly susceptible I/St mice that were practically not protected by vaccination. Despite significant effect of vaccination in inbred mice, their resistance to M. tuberculosis infection did not exceed that of non-vaccinated highly resistant F1 hybrids.

The monitoring of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is crucial for understanding the level of antimicrobial resistance and the associated health burden, which in turn is essential for the control and prevention of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Isothermal amplification, an emerging molecular biology technology, has been widely used for drug resistance detection. Furthermore, its compatibility with a range of technologies enables high-specificity, high-throughput, and portable and integrated detection in drug resistance, particularly in resource-limited areas.

Patient adherence is vital for Helicobacter pylori eradication. Simplifying therapy dosing schedules may promote patient adherence, enhance treatment success rates, and help mitigate the development of antibiotic resistance. We aimed to assess plasma and intragastric rifabutin, amoxicillin, and omeprazole concentrations comparing two dosing schedules of RHB-105 (every 8 h and a more flexible three-times daily schedule, at 8 a.
