Molecular identification and antibiogram profiling of Avibacterium Paragallinarum and co-pathogenic bacteria assiciated with respiratory infections in chickens at Groot Aub settlement, Khomas region
… to gentamycin, ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole. On the contrary, all isolated co-pathogenic bacteria were resistant to tetracycline and sensitive to trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole, ampicillin and ciprofloxacin. These results indicate that Avibacterium paragallinarum is more …

Enzymatic treatment of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in municipal wastewater
… sources is required. Treatment of another PPCP, sulfamethoxazole, was less efficient (65% removal) than that of oxybenzone, but nevertheless, the substantial removal might indicate that other PPCPs can be treated with the laccase-mediator system. The most promising result of this work was the …

Antimicrobial resistance patterns of foodborne bacterial isolates from HIV/AIDS patients in Lusaka, Zambia.
… found to be highly resistant to ampicillin and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim with 95.4% and 80.95% resistance respectively. Foodborne bacteria such as Staphylococcus aurues isolates were 100% resistant to azithromycin and 90.90% resistant to methicillin. While Salmonella paratyphi isolate was …

The Development of M3+-Doped Mesoporous Ti4O7 Electrode for Pharmaceutical Degradation in Fresh Human Urine
… 30 hours lifetime and were able to degrade 96.7% sulfamethoxazole (SMX) within 60 minutes. In conclusion, the Co-doped mesoporous Ti4O7 electrodes have better stability than previous well-studied electrode materials and cheaper fabrication cost than boron-doped diamond electrodes. The electrode …

The effects of low-level pharmaceuticals on stream biofilm structure and function across a land-use gradient in streams of the Huron River watershed
… then exposed to triclosan, diphenhydramine, and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim treatments. We found evidence that low levels of these PPCPs affected some, but not all, aspects of biofilm processes and bacterial community composition. Bacterial carbon uptake was reduced (p = 0.06) and we found …
