A culture medium for screening pandrug- resistance to aminoglycosides in Gram-negative bacteria
Multidrug resistance in Gram negatives is now recognized as an issue of worldwide interest. Those bacteria possess various resistance mechanisms compromising the efficacy of several class of antibiotics such as beta-lactams and aminoglycosides. Therefore, it is essential
Amikacin analysis and aerosol particle size distribution (aPSD) determination using charged aerosol detector (CAD)
Amikacin, a broad spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from kanamycin A, is commonly used for treating severe, hospital – acquired infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria. The analysis of this molecule has always been challenging because it does not
