Whole-genome sequencing identifies emergence of a quinolone resistance mutation in a case of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia bacteremia.

abstract：:We studied the efficacy of pentamidine (PNT) as prophylaxis or early treatment in acute pulmonary fusariosis in neutropenic mice. PNT-preexposed mice had significantly improved survival and reduced fungal burden compared to amphotericin B-preexposed and untreated mice. PNT-treated mice had increased survival but no di...
