Distribution of main Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in United States and European hospitals during the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program (2010-2016): concomitant analysis of oritavancin in vitro activity.

Journal of chemotherapy (Florence, Italy)
This study updates the distribution and trends of Gram-positive organisms causing bloodstream infections (BSIs) in the United States (US) and Europe during 2010-2016. In vitro activities of oritavancin and comparators were also evaluated. Staphylococ...

Improving Recognition of Antimicrobial Peptides and Target Selectivity through Machine Learning and Genetic Programming.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Growing bacterial resistance to antibiotics is spurring research on utilizing naturally-occurring antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as templates for novel drug design. While experimentalists mainly focus on systematic point mutations to measure the effec...

Nemonoxacin has potent activity against gram-positive, but not gram-negative clinical isolates.

La Clinica terapeutica
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the current study was to analyze the susceptibility of gram-positive and -negative clinical isolates to a novel des-F(6)-quinolone (nemonoxacin) and other selected antimicrobial agents.
