In-vitro Resistance Development by Ciprofloxacin and Azithromycin in Shigella dysenteriae

Mohammad Sayful Islam, Md. Anwarul Haque, Ashish Kumar Sarker, Md. Ajijur Rahman & Md. Anwar Ul Islam · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2016

Introduction: Drug resistance is a growing public health issue among the health care professionals. Due to improper use many bacterial species including the Shigella dysenteriae become resistant to the standard therapy. Objectives: In the present study, we have shown the bacteria...

In vitro Bioluminescence Used as a Method for Real-Time Inhibition Zone Testing for Antibiotic-Releasing Composites

Noora M. Mannisto, Niina Ahola, Matti T. Karp, Minna Veiranto & Minna Kellomaki · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2013

Aims: This study describes the potential of real-time bioluminescence imaging in evaluating the antibiotic efficiency of two cylinder-shaped bioabsorbable antibiotic-releasing composites by in vitro inhibition zone tests. The bacterial infections of bone tissue can cause extensiv...
