摘要:
The present invention provides bacterial ATP synthase inhibitors such as a compound of formula (I): (Formula (I)) (A) in combination with an aminoglycoside antibiotic for preventing or treating a bacterial infection in a subject; or (B) (a) for preventing or treating an infection caused by an electron transport-deficient bacteria in a subject; or (b) for the disinfection, sterilization and/or antisepsis of an object contaminated with an electron transport-deficient bacteria. There are provided compositions and kits using such compounds and inhibitors.
摘要:
The present application relates to the use of endogenous fluorescent biological markers to determine a biological parameter of a cell in a liquid. The methods provided herein provide accurate results in a relatively short amount of time and can be used to monitor and optimize cell culture online as well as determining the presence of a cellular contamination in a cell suspension.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to combustion systems and components for rotary ramjet engines. An injection system, optionally stratified for ease of engine startup, provides an air and fuel mixture to a combustion chamber. An ignition system ignites the mixture. A flameholding system may be positioned for communication with the combustion chamber to force an ignited flow of the air and fuel mixture toward a center of rotation within the ramjet engine. The ramjet engine may comprise a diverging stator for improved exhaust efficiency. Ignition may take place in the engine air intake. Alternatively, ignition may take place within the combustion chamber using a dual-hub electrically charged system. An impulse turbine may use recirculation of injected fuel to cool a rim-rotor and/or to reduce windage on the rim-rotor. A sealing system may reduce gas leaks from a fuel conduit into the engine air intake.
摘要:
The present invention includes novel compounds based on the tomatidine skeleton as well as composition comprising these compounds alone and in combination with known compounds, which exhibit antimicrobial activity against extracellular or intracellular electron transport-deficient microbes and/or increase the antimicrobial activity of aminoglycoside antibiotics against their targets, and which are useful as antibacterial agents for treatment or prophylaxis of monomicrobiotic or polymicrobic bacterial infections or for the reduction of antibiotic resistance development in animals or in humans, or for use as antiseptics or agents for sterilization or disinfection.
摘要:
Agents, compositions, methods and kits useful for the treatment and diagnosis of Staphylococcal intramammary infection are disclosed. The agents, compositions, methods and kits are derived from genes expressed during Staphylococcal intramammary infection, and more particularly genes SACOL0029, based on the gene nomenclature from the Staphylococcus aureus COL (SACOL) genome.
