Two versatile yet simple methods, colorimetric and spectrofluorimetric, were utilized for the quantitation of nonchromophore neomycin using silver nanoparticles modified with fluorescein. Fluorescein was excited at 485 nm (emission at 515 nm); when it is deposited on the surface of silver nanoparticles, its fluorescence intensity at 515 nm is quenched. Neomycin restores the fluorescence level at 515 nm by displacing fluorescein from nanoparticle binding sites.

Urethritis is a common condition predominantly caused by sexually transmitted pathogens such as Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Mycoplasma genitalium. It is not possible to differentiate with certainty between pathogens on the basis of clinical characteristics alone. However, empirical antibiotic therapy is often initiated in clinical practice.

The term "intracranial abscess" (ICA) includes cerebral abscess, subdural empyema, and epidural empyema, which share many diagnostic and therapeutic similarities and, frequently, very similar etiologies. Infection may occur and spread from a contiguous infection such as sinusitis, otitis, mastoiditis, or dental infection; hematogenous seeding; or cranial trauma. Brain abscess usually results from predisposing factors such as HIV infection, immunosuppressive drug treatment, surgery, adjacent infection (i.

Introduction: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is increasingly favored in clinical practice due to its favorable long-term survival rates, positive clinical outcomes, and expedited recovery. Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) remain a formidable complication in knee arthroplasty, and guidelines for the management are limited. This study aims to assess the failure rates of débridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) in UKAs, providing insights into optimal treatment management and infection-free survival for PJI in this context.
