Impact of rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing for Gram-negative bacteremia varies by pathogen type and resistance: a secondary analysis of the RAPIDS GN trial by Ritu Banerjee, Abhigya Giri, Lauren Komarow, Maria Souli, Sarah B. Doernberg, Robin Patel

“…ABSTRACT In this secondary analysis of 386 subjects with Gram-negative bacteremia enrolled in the RAPIDS GN trial, rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing had a greater benefit on the management of bacteremia caused by antibiotic-resistant compared to antibiotic-susceptible isolates, especially for Escherichia coli, Klebsiella species, and Proteus species.IMPORTANCERapid blood culture diagnostics are costly, and their use has not demonstrated clear clinical benefit for patients with Gram-negative sepsis, possibly because prior trials did not enroll sufficient numbers of patients with antibiotic-resistant infections. …”

Biological activities of silver nanoparticles from Nothapodytes nimmoniana (Graham) Mabb. fruit extracts by G. Mahendran, B.D. Ranjitha Kumari

“…Further, fruit extract and AgNPs were evaluated total phenolic, tannin and flavonoid contents and were subjected to assess their antioxidant potential using various in vitro systems such as using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), metal chelating, phosphomolybdenum and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) activities and antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. When compared to AgNPs, fruit extract exhibited uppermost radical scavenging activities. …”
