Objectives: Although the broth microdilution method (BMD) is recommended in determining colistin resistance, the search for alternative methods continues. We aimed to determine the effectiveness in detecting colistin sensitivity by comparing the liquid microdilution method, which is the gold standard method for colistin susceptibility testing, and the Sensititre™ microdilution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA), Phoenix™ 100 (Becton Dickinson, USA), and MicroScan WalkAway™ (Beckman Coulter, USA) automated systems, which are the commercial BMD methods.

Abstract:
Bacterial keratitis is a common and serious condition that often leads to vision impairment and potential loss of the eye if not treated promptly and adequately. Topical blood products are often used concurrently with topical antibiotics, helping to mitigate corneal ‘melt’ from proteases released on the ocular surface. However, blood products are rich in albumin and could affect the efficacy of antibiotics due to drug-protein binding. In this study, serum and plasma samples were harvested from 10 healthy dogs and 10 healthy horses, obtaining fresh and frozen (1 month at −20°C) aliquots for in

Abstract:
Abstract Background Clostridioides difficile places an increasing burden on healthcare because of emerging hypervirulent strains such as RT078/ST11 that may be resistant to commonly prescribed antibiotics e.g. fluoroquinolones. Pigs are often colonized by RT078/ST11 and act as potential reservoir for human C. difficile infection (CDI). They are the highest consumers of veterinary antimicrobials in many countries.1 We investigated the susceptibility of C. difficile to antibiotics that are commonly prescribed and/or used to treat CDI. Methods Sequenced C. difficile (humans=50, pigs=40), collecte

Abstract:
BackgroundThe incidence of invasive candidiasis is increasing worldwide. However, the epidemiology, antifungal susceptibility, and virulence of Candida spp. in most hospitals remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate invasive candidiasis in a tertiary care hospital in Nanchang City, China.MethodsMALDI-TOF MS and 18S rDNA ITS sequencing were used to identify Candida strains. Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis was used for molecular typing; biofilm production, caseinase, and hemolysin activities were used to evaluate virulence. The Sensititre™ YeastOne YO10 panel was used to examine

Abstract:
Abstract Background Reports of a PCN-resistant (R), ampicillin-susceptible (S) Enterococcus faecalis (PRASEF) phenotype associated with elevated piperacillin and imipenem minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) may drive hesitation to use these agents when a PCN MIC is unknown and/or result in the addition of a glycopeptide. However, PCN MICs by broth microdilution are not readily available in many clinical laboratories and some commercial methods may overcall PRASEF. We sought to assess the rate of overcalling PCN MICs by gradient diffusion compared to broth microdilution and the impact of P
