Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (RAST) using disk diffusion (DD) from positive blood cultures (BC) can aid initiation of effective antimicrobial therapy. Rapid molecular blood culture identification panels (BCID) and microbiology laborator...
Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is prevalent in the neuro-intensive care unit (NICU), significantly increasing susceptibility to infections with multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), which result in high mortality rates and substantial healthcare ...
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most alarming antibiotic-resistant pathogens causing nosocomial and community-acquired infections. Actinomycetes, particularly Streptomycetes, have historically been a major source of n...
The hydrothermal-calcination technique was used to modify raw sand with silver (Ag) at different weight percentages: 2%, 5%, and 10% using silver nitrate. The raw and sand-coated Ag nanoparticle samples were analyzed using various techniques, includi...
This study explored the great potential of endophytic fungi associated with red seaweed Gracilaria sp. and brown seaweed Sargassum sp. of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh, for the first time. Endophytic fungi were identified taxonomically by morphologic...
BACKGROUND: The rising danger of antibiotic resistance and the increasing burden of cancer worldwide have highlighted the necessity for a constant supply of new antimicrobial drugs and anticancer therapies. Endophytic fungi, recognized as a rich supp...
The bacterial cell division protein FtsZ, a crucial GTPase, plays a vital role in the formation of the contractile Z-ring, which is essential for bacterial cytokinesis. Consequently, inhibiting FtsZ could prevent the formation of proto-filaments and ...
UNLABELLED: Antimicrobial resistance is an escalating global health crisis, underscoring the urgent need for timely and targeted therapies to ensure effective clinical treatment. We developed a machine learning model based on metagenomic next-generat...
The connection between fluoroquinolones and severe heart conditions, such as aortic aneurysm (AA) and aortic dissection (AD), has been acknowledged, but the full extent of long-term risks remains uncertain. Addressing this knowledge deficit, a retros...
Currently, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major public health challenge. The emergence of AMR, which significantly threatens public health, is primarily due to the overuse of antimicrobial agents. This study explored the possibility that the ...
