A kinetic model for horizontal transfer and bacterial antibiotic resistance
(World Scientific, 2017-05)
This paper presents a mathematical model for bacterial growth, mutations, horizontal transfer and development of antibiotic resistance. The model is based on the so-called kinetic theory for active particles that is able ...
Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) determine antibiotic action in Langmuir monolayers as nanoarchitectonics mimetic membranes of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(2022-06-01)
The membrane of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) contains penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) in the phospholipidic bilayer, with the protein PBP2a being linked with the resistance mechanism. In this work ...
Occurrence of Resistance to Antibiotics, UV-B, and Arsenic in Bacteria Isolated from Extreme Environments in High-Altitude (Above 4400 m) Andean Wetlands
(Springer, 2008-05)
High-altitude Andean wetlands are pristine environments with extreme conditions such as high UV radiation, high heavy metal content (mainly arsenic), high salinity, and oligotrophy. In this paper, the UV-B resistance and ...

A Review of Bacterial Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Their Removal Strategies from Wastewater
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021-07)
Purpose of review: This review is intended to address the issues of unsafe disposal of antibiotics from various sources to the environment, its incomplete degradation, the resulting antibiotic resistance properties on ...
Exploiting the furo[2,3-b]pyridine core against multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis
(2019-04-15)
Identification of new antibiotics suitable for the treatment of tuberculosis is required. In addition to selectivity, it is necessary to find new antibiotics that are effective when the tuberculous mycobacteria are resistant ...
Surgical antibiotic prophylaxis: is the clinical practice based on evidence?
(Inst Israelita Ensino & Pesquisa Albert Einstein, 2020-01-01)
Objective: To assess the surgical antibiotic prophylaxis. Methods: This was a descriptive study performed at a public tertiary care university hospital gathering prescription, sociodemographic and hospitalization data of ...
The high risk of bivalve farming in coastal areas with heavy metal pollution and antibiotic-resistant bacteria: a chilean perspective
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
Anthropogenic pollution has a huge impact on the water quality of marine ecosystems. Heavy metals and antibiotics are anthropogenic stressors that have a major effect on the health of the marine organisms. Although heavy ...
Analysis of quinolone-resistance in commensal and diarrheagenic escherichia coli isolates from infants in lima, Peru
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
Background: Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem, particularly in countries where antibiotic use is frequently not controlled. The aim of this study was to analyse the prevalence of the molecular mechanisms of ...
