The variants of the tumor cells of Fisher lymphadenosis, strain L-5178 and Staph. aureus resistant to rubomycin simultaneously became partially less sensitive to adriamycin. Sensitivity to karminomycin in the rubomycin resistant strains did not practically change as compared to the sensitivity of the initial strains. Sensitivity to adriamycin and rubomycin in Staph. aureus decreased 67 and 4 times respectively after 7 passages on media with increasing concentrations of adriamycin, while sensitivity to karminomycin decreased only 1.5 times, i.e. remained practically unchanged. After 22 passages of Staph. aureus to karminomycinrubomycin and adriamycin decreased 16, 67 and 33 times respectively. The results of the study may be explained by differences in the changes of the cell membrane permeability due to the drug effect.

We report the in situ synthesis of silver-containing polyisocyanurate (Ag-PI) gels via the self-polymerization of isocyanate-containing organic molecules (Desmodur N75) catalyzed by silver nitrate (AgNO) in ,'-dimethylformamide, which acts as both the solvent and reducing agent. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of polyisocyanurate and metallic silver nanoparticles. Gelation occurred in 30 min at 30 °C for Ag-PI, compared to 24 h for the uncatalyzed system, demonstrating AgNO's catalytic role.

Discovering new antibiotics and increasing the efficacy of existing antibiotics are priorities to address antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial proteins and peptides (AMPPs) are considered among the most promising antibiotic alternatives and complementary therapies. Here, we build upon previous work investigating the antibacterial activity of a semi-purified hemolymph protein extract (HPE) of the Australian oyster Saccostrea glomerata.
