Zinc eluted from siliconized latex urinary catheters decreases OprD expression, causing carbapenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-07-01)
The activities of carbapenems against Pseudomonas aeruginosa decreased in the presence of siliconized latex urinary catheters (SLUCs). This effect was associated with the loss of OprD. The zinc that eluted from SLUCs is ...

Photodynamic Therapy Combined with Antibiotics or Antifungals against Microorganisms That Cause Skin and Soft Tissue Infections: A Planktonic and Biofilm Approach to Overcome Resistances
(MDPI, 2021)
The present review covers combination approaches of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) plus antibiotics or antifungals to attack bacteria and fungi in vitro (both planktonic and biofilm forms) focused on those ...

Bactericidal Effect of Photodynamic Therapy, Alone or in Combination with Mupirocin or Linezolid, on Staphylococcus aureus
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
Antibiotic treatments frequently fail due to the development of antibiotic resistance, underscoring the need for new treatment strategies. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) could constitute an alternative therapy. ...

Uptake and intracellular activity of sparfloxacin in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and tissue culture cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 1992-01-01)
The penetration of sparfloxacin into human neutrophils (PMN) and different tissue culture cells (HEp-2 and McCoy) was evaluated. The cellular to extracellular concentration ratios (C/E) of sparfloxacin were always higher ...

Uptake and intracellular activity of linezolid in human phagocytes and nonphagocytic cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 2002-12-01)
The intracellular penetration and activity of linezolid in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and tissue-cultured cells (McCoy) were evaluated. Linezolid reached intracellular concentrations slightly greater than extracellular ...

Intracellular penetration and activity of BAY Y 3118 in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes
(American Society for Microbiology, 1994-01-01)
The penetration of a new quinolone (BAY Y 3118) into human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) was evaluated by a fluorometric assay. The cellular concentration-to-extracellular concentration (C/E) ratio was higher than ...

Intracellular penetration and activity of gemifloxacin in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes
(American Society for Microbiology, 2000-11-09)
The intracellular penetration and activity of gemifloxacin in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) were evaluated. Gemifloxacin reached intracellular concentrations eight times higher than extracellular concentrations. ...

Uptake and intracellular activity of an optically active ofloxacin isomer in human neutrophils and tissue culture cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 1990-01-01)
The penetration of an optically active ofloxacin isomer [(-)-ofloxacin] into human neutrophils and different tissue culture cells (HEp-2, McCoy, MDCK, and Vero) was studied and compared with that of ofloxacin by a fluorometric ...

Characterization of a clinical isolate of Haemophilus influenzae with a high level of fluoroquinolone resistance
(Oxford University Press, 2006-01-23)
Haemophilus influenzae is one of the bacterial pathogens most likely to be involved in community-acquired respiratory infections in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In this species, resistance to ...
