Objective: The difficulty of establishing slow release at intestinal infection sites, weak antibacterial effects, as well as the limited broad use of florfenicol oral formulations are the main targets of the current study. Novel hydrogels derived from sodium alginate were developed using a complexation form for florfenicol delivery to achieve slow release at the site of intestinal infection and enhance its antibacterial activity against .
Methods: The optimal formulation, physicochemical properties, stability, pH-responsive performance, antibacterial activity, and in vitro biosafety of the florfenicol hydrogels have been studied systematically.

Aims: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an important zoonotic pathogen with multidrug-resistant phenotypes increasingly prevalent in both human and veterinary clinics. This study evaluated the potential of auranofin (AF) as an antibiotic adjuvant to enhance the anti-MRSA activity of florfenicol (FFC) and established a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model to compare the efficacy of FFC alone or in combination with AF against MRSA.
Methods And Results: We observed an increased susceptibility and significant synergistic effects of MRSA to FFC in the presence of AF.

Background: Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is an economically important disease in the beef industry, and a major driver of therapeutic antibiotic use. Pharmacokinetic data of these drugs is relatively limited in diseased animals.
Hypothesis/objective: To determine the concentrations of pradofloxacin, florfenicol, and tulathromycin in the airways, plasma, and interstitial fluid (ISF) of steers with a clinically relevant model of bacterial respiratory disease.

To gain insights into the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance patterns of major bacterial pathogens affecting largemouth bass () in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region, Guangdong, China, a study was conducted from August 2021 to July 2022. During this period, bacteria were isolated and identified from the internal organs of diseased largemouth bass within the PRD region. The antimicrobial resistance patterns of 11 antibiotics approved for use in aquaculture in China were analyzed in 80 strains of using the microbroth dilution method.

Pradofloxacin is a dual targeting, bactericidal fluoroquinolone recently approved for treating bacteria causing swine respiratory disease. Currently, an abundance of in vitro data does not exist for pradofloxacin. We determined the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and mutant prevention concentrations (MPC) of pradofloxacin compared to ceftiofur, enrofloxacin, florfenicol, marbofloxacin, tildipirosin, tilmicosin and tulathromycin against swine isolates of and .
