Pyrosequencing-based approach for rapid detection of rifampin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Abstract:

:Rifampin resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis could be determined within 2 h by using pyrosequencing-based approach. Pyrosequencing results of rifampin-resistant (n = 21) and rifampin-susceptible (n = 20) M. tuberculosis isolates were concordant with those based on drug susceptibility testing and conventional DNA sequencing. Results showed pyrosequencing-based approach is a rapid, sensitive, and efficient detection method of rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis.

  • In vitro activity of oritavancin against planktonic and biofilm states of vancomycin-susceptible and vancomycin-resistant enterococci.

    abstract::We tested the in vitro activity of oritavancin against 60 vancomycin-susceptible enterococci (VSE) and 27 vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). The oritavancin MIC ranged from ≤0.002 to 0.5μg/mL; the minimum biofilm bactericidal concentration ranged from ≤0.002 to 2μg/mL. Oritavancin has promising in vitro activity ...
