A number of assays have been described for aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes; the aim of our investigation was to check the validity of polarized immunofluorescence assay for aminoglycoside enzymes. We have studied three enzymes encoded by R-factors from clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae conferring various patterns of aminoglycoside-resistance. The assay resulted valid: this is a simple, rapid and sensitive method.

Producing oral soft tissues using tissue engineering could compensate for the disadvantages of autologous grafts (limited availability and increased patient morbidity) and currently available substitutes (shrinkage). However, there is a lack of in vitro-engineered oral tissues due to the difficulty of obtaining stable pre-vessels that connect to the host and enable graft success. The main objective was to assess the connection of pre-vascularised 3D-bioprinted gingival substitutes to the host vasculature when subcutaneously implanted in immunodeficient mice.
