Colistin and anti-Gram-positive bacterial agents against Acinetobacter baumannii.
INTRODUCTION Acinetobacter baumannii has attained an alarming level of resistance to antibacterial drugs. Clinicians are now considering the use of older agents or unorthodox combinations of licensed drugs against multidrug-resistant strains to bridge the current treatment gap. We investigated the in vitro activities of combination treatments that included colistin with vancomycin, norvancomyci...
متن کاملAnti -Bacterial Activity of Punica granatum Flower Extract against Several Gram-Negative and Positive Bacteria
Background and objectives: Bacterial antibiotic resistance is a major issue in the process of infectious disease treatments. The aim of this study was an evaluation of the antibacterial activity of Punica granatum flower extract against several gram-negative and positive clinical bacterial isolates. Methods: An adequate dried flower of an endemic mature Punica granatum plant was used for ex...
متن کاملSynthesis, characterization and antimicrobial properties of CuO nanoparticles against gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains
Nano structured materials have wide range of applications due to their interesting size-dependent chemical and physical properties compared to particles of size in the range of micrometer. Copper oxide nano materials are of interest on account of their potential uses in many technological fields. In this study CuO nanoparticles were synthesized via simple sol gel method using basic CuSO4<...

متن کاملGlobal Epidemiology on Colistin Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii
While colistin remains a last resort agent to treat multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, resistance to colistin has been reported throughout the world. The resistance has been attributed to mutations in lipid A biosynthesis genes and point mutation in PmrAB-two component response regulator and sensor kinase system. The emergence of plasmid mediated colistin resistance (mcr-1), in multi...
