BI-LIGAND MODIFICATION OF NANOPARTICLES: AN EFFECTIVE TOOL FOR SURFACE-ENHANCED RAMAN SPECTROMETRY IN SALINATED ENVIRONMENTS

Bi-Ligand Modification of Nanoparticles: An Effective Tool for Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectrometry in Salinated Environments

Elimination of massive aggregation of nanoparticles in the sample of high ionic strength is a prerequisite for the sensitive analysis through a surface-enhanced Raman spectrometry (SERS).We present a system of silver colloid modification composed of two thiolated modifiers (3-mercaptopropionic acid and thiolated polyethylene glycol) both creating a

A Conjugative IncI1 Plasmid Carrying erm(B) and blaCTX-M-104 That Mediates Resistance to Azithromycin and Cephalosporins

ABSTRACT In this study, an IncI1 plasmid encoding resistance to both cefotaxime and azithromycin was recovered from a clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae strain.The azithromycin resistance was confirmed to be mediated by the erm(B) gene.This plasmid could be readily conjugated to strains of Escherichia coli and Salmonella, promoting rapid dissemination
