Adherence, anti-adherence, and oligosaccharides preventing pathogens from sticking to the host.
30 Dec 2008
For many pathogenic bacteria, infections are initiated only after the organism has first adhered to the host cell surface. If adherence can be inhibited, then the subsequent infection can also be inhibited. This approach forms the basis of ... Read more...
Survey, laboratory and statistical methods for the BSAC Resistance Surveillance Programmes.
30 Oct 2008
OBJECTIVES: The British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (BSAC) Bacteraemia and Respiratory Resistance Surveillance Programmes are designed for long-term surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in key pathogens of bloodstream and ... Read more...
30 Oct 2008
OBJECTIVES: Logistic regression is commonly used to analyse resistance surveillance studies, but variation between collecting centres undermines its assumption that isolates are independent. We studied the impact of this problem and the ability of ... Read more...
