Serotypes and antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Chinese pediatric population: a scoping review by Xu Han, Haiyang Yu, Niurka Molina Águila, María Eugenia Toledo Romaní

“…There are 11 articles that analyze the antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae, the prevalence of non-susceptible to penicillin is in the range of 0% to 95.7%. Isolates are highly resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin, tetracycline, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; they are resistant to penicillin in pneumococcal meningitis but are sensitive to penicillin in other pneumococcal diseases, in addition, they are very sensitive to levofloxacin, vancomycin and Linezolid. …”

Synthesis, characterization and evaluation biological activity of some 2-mercaptobinzemidazol complexes by Anfal Salam Al-Mahdawi, Noor Sabah Al-Obaidi, Amna Ali Ahmad, Tabarak Ali Jumaa, Zahraa Ali Abas, Haider Salah Mahdi

“…The synthesized complexes were assessed for their biological activity against different four types of bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, spherical bacteria, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Klebsiella pneumoniae), in addition to a type of Fungus, Candida albicans, the comparison include the activity of the complexes in relation to the antibiotic penicillin and the activity of 2-mercaptobenzomidazole, the prepared complexes had the highest biological activity compared to ligand and the antibiotic penicillin, the best prepared complex was the cadmium complex, the diameter of inhibition ranged between (27–36 nm) against bacteria and (40 nm) against the fungus, the complexes can be suggested as a more activity antibiotic than ligand and penicillin.…”
