Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnaerobic Fermentation for Ceftriaxone Sodium Degradation in Excess Sludge: pH-Dependent Performance, Metabolite Formation, and Microbial Community DynamicsWeiwei Li, Hong Niu, Yonghui Zhang et al.The accumulation of ceftriaxone sodium (CTX), a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, in wastewater and sludge poses significant environmental and health risks, necessitating effective degradation strategies. This study investigated anaerobic fermentation of excess sludge (12,000-14,000 mg/L) spiked with 15 mg/L CTX under varying pH conditions (4, 7, 10, 12) to evaluate sludge reduction, metabolite formation, and microbial community dynamics. Results demonstrated that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2026 · 857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCefepime Monotherapy is as Effective as Ceftriaxone Plus Amikacin in Pediatric Patients with Cancer and High-Risk Febrile Neutropenia: A Randomized ComparisonCarlos Alberto Pires Pereira, Antonio Sérgio Petrilli, Fabianne Altruda Carlesse et al.The empirical use of antibiotic therapies is widely accepted in patients with fever and neutropenia during cancer chemotherapy. The use of intravenous monotherapy with broad-spectrum antibiotics in patients with high-risk of complications is an appropriate alternative. However, few data are available in pediatric patients. We conducted a prospective, randomized, open study in patients with lymphoma or leukemia who had fever … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,404 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStandard Versus Specific Therapy for Chronic Osteomyelitis TreatmentAngela Ingianni, Giorgio Lampis, Samuela Laconi et al.58 patients with chronic osteomyelitis were treated either with a standard therapy or with a specific targeted therapy based on the antibiogram assay. Standard therapy was performed by a 15-day course of a parenteral cephalosporin (usually ceftriaxone) in combination with an aminoglycoside (e.g. netilmicin), followed by oral therapy with a fluoroquinolone (generally ciprofloxacin) for 1 to 3 months; specific therapy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHospital-Based Antibiotic Therapy in Benin: A Point Prevalence Survey at the Departmental and Teaching Hospital of Borgou-Alibori in 2022Cossi Angelo Attinsounon, Aldin Gnaha, Carine Laurence Yehouenou et al.Antimicrobial resistance is a public health problem. The main factor favoring the development of antibiotic resistance is the abusive or inappropriate use of antibiotics. This study is the first to take all services into account and aims to describe antibiotic therapy practices in the Departmental and Teaching Hospital of Borgou-Alibori (DTH-BA). Patients and methods: This was a cross-sectional, descriptive survey … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 10 Feb 2024 · 6,095 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Resistance Pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Different Clinical Specimens: Survey ArticleHosniyeh E. Ladadweh, Hiba H. Falana, Jannat M. Ma’ali et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.A.) is a gram-negative, aerobic rod bacterium that mainly grows in soil and watery environments, infrequently being a part of microflora in healthy individuals. Since P.A. favors the growth in moistened areas, it can colonize in any simple aqueous solution, which in turn raises the risk of contamination and infection in hospital settings. The emergence of drug resistant … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2021 · 8,396 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractActinomyces Odontolyticus with Klebsiella and Bacteroides Presenting as Facio-Cervical Abscess with Extension to Scalp and no Sinus TractTanveer Mir, Anita Choudhary, Anshu Wadehra et al.Actinomycosis is a rare infectious bacterial disease caused by various Actinomyces species. Being very rare, Actinomyces is easily misdiagnosed. Actinomyces are common commensals of the oral cavity which predispose to local infections. We report a case of a 67-year-old female who initially presented with swelling of the left sided face which later on proved to be a mixed infection with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2019 · 7,241 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOral Clindamycin as Drug of Choice for Scabies Patients with Secondary Bacterial Infections in West Java, IndonesiaHendra Gunawan, Unwati Sugiri, Nurhasanah et al.The aim of this study was to identify the causative secondary bacterial infection in scabies and its susceptibility against systemic antimicrobials. We performed a cross-sectional descriptive study of 34 scabies patients clinically diagnosed by investigators through consecutive sampling in one District Hospital in West Java, Indonesia from January to March 2017. The secondary bacterial infection was confirmed by Gram staining. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2018 · 18,813 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Different Drugs in Down-Regulation of Efflux Pump Genes expression in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus StrainsManu Chaudhary, Santosh Kumar Patnaik, Anurag PayasiAntimicrobial resistance caused by efflux systems is not widely studied in Staphylococcus aureus. In the present study, prevalence of NorA and NorB efflux pumps was studied in thirteen Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains using a pair of primers with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Antibiotic susceptibility study in NorA and NorB efflux positive isolates was carried out according to the Clinical … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 7 Jan 2015 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE EFFECT OF DIABETES MELLITUS ON THE CLINICAL AND MICRO-BIOLOGICAL OUTCOMES IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE PYELONEPHRITISKathleen Lynch, Veena Venugopalan, Levita HidayatThere is some published evidence which suggests that the clinical outcomes and pathogens associated with Acute Pyelonephritis (AP) differ between diabetics and non-diabetics. However, current guidelines do not make treatment distinctions based on Diabetes Mellitus (DM) status. The objectives of this study were to identify the microbiological and clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with AP and investigate differences between patients … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 6 May 2014 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
