Effectiveness of commercially-available antibiotic-impregnated implants.
The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of antibiotic-impregnated implants in the prevention of bone infection. We used a model of contaminated fracture in goats to evaluate four treatment groups: no treatment, hand-made tobramycin-impregnated polymethylmethacrylate beads, commercially-available tobramycin-impregnated calcium sulphate pellets and commercially-available tobramyc...
متن کاملScreen-Printed Graphite Electrodes as Low-Cost Devices for Oxygen Gas Detection in Room-Temperature Ionic Liquids
Screen-printed graphite electrodes (SPGEs) have been used for the first time as platforms to detect oxygen gas in room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs). Up until now, carbon-based SPEs have shown inferior behaviour compared to platinum and gold SPEs for gas sensing with RTIL solvents. The electrochemical reduction of oxygen (O₂) in a range of RTILs has therefore been explored on home-made SPGE...
متن کاملTesting of Commercially Available Fatigue Monitors
This report presents an evaluation of three commercially available fatigue monitors (the Onguard eye closure monitor, a head nodding monitor-Dozer's Alarm, and an analogue of the Roadguard reaction time monitor) based on laboratory testing. The devices showed an ability to detect fatigue in some cases but were not able to maintain alertness and thus prevent performance deterioration. There were...
متن کاملBacteriological Profiling of Commercially Available Eye Cosmetics and their Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern
Background and Objective: Various types of cosmetics, including the eye cosmetic (EC) one, have been reported worldwide to be contaminated with potential bacterial pathogens causing several infections to humans. The current study determines the bacterial contaminants of commercially available ECs in Malda (West Bengal state, India) and to explore the antibiotic susceptibility patterns of the is...
متن کاملA multiplexed microfluidic platform for rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing.
Effective treatment of clinical infections is critically dependent on the ability to rapidly screen patient samples to identify antibiograms of infecting pathogens. Existing methods for antibiotic susceptibility testing suffer from several disadvantages, including long turnaround times, excess sample and reagent consumption, poor detection sensitivity, and limited combinatorial capabilities. Un...
