Hal ini menjadi ancaman terhadap kesehatan masyarakat karena merupakan bakteri yang multi-drug resistance dan sulit diobati. Oleh karena itu, pentingnya pengembangan agen antimikroba untuk mengobati infeksi semakin meningkat dan salah satu yang saat ini banyak dikembangkan adalah senyawa turunan sefalosporin. Penelitian ini melakukan studi mengenai interaksi tiga dimensi (3D) antara antibiotik dari senyawa turunan Sefalosporin dengan penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) pada P. aeruginosa. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengklarifikasi bahwa agen antimikroba yang berasal dari senyawa turunan sefalosporin efektif untuk menghambat aktivitas bakteri P. aeruginosa. Struktur PBPs didapatkan dari Protein Data Bank (PDB ID: 5DF9). Sketsa struktur turunan sefalosporin digambar menggunakan Marvins Sketch. Kemudian, studi mengenai interaksi antara antibiotik dan PBPs dilakukan menggunakan program Mollegro Virtual Docker 6.0. Hasil yang didapatkan yaitu nilai rerank score terendah dari kelima generasi sefalosporin, di antaranya sefalotin (-116.306), sefotetan (-133.605), sefoperazon (-160.805), sefpirom (- 144.045), dan seftarolin fosamil (-146.398).

Corynebacterium Species Rarely Cause Orthopedic Infections
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Corynebacterium species rarely cause orthopedic infections Kalt, Fabian ; Schulthess, Bettina ; Sidler, Fabian ; Herren, Sebastian ; Fucentese, Sandro F ; Zingg, Patrick O ; Berli, Martin ; Zinkernagel, Annelies S ; Zbinden, Reinhard ; Achermann, Yvonne Abstract: Corynebacterium spp. are rarely considered as pathogens but data in orthopedic infections are sparse. Therefore, we asked how often Corynebacterium spp. caused an infection in a defined cohort of orthopedic patients with a positive culture. In addition, we aimed to determine the species variety and susceptibility of isolated strains in regards to potential treatment strategies. Between 2006 and 2015, we retrospectively assessed all Corynebacterium sp. bone and joint cultures from an orthopedic ward. The isolates were considered as relevant indicating an infection if the same Corynebacterium sp. was present in at least two samples. We found 97 orthopedic cases with isolation of Corynebacterium spp. (128 positive samples), mainly Corynebacterium tuberculostearicum (n=26), Corynebacterium amycolatum (n=17), Corynebacterium striatum (n=13), and Corynebacterium afermentans (n=11). Compared to a cohort of positive blood cultures, we found significantly more C. striatum and C. tuberculostearicum but no C. jeikeium cases. Only 16 cases out 66 cases (24.2%) with an available diagnostic set of at least 2 samples had an infection. Antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) of different antibiotics showed various susceptibility results except for vancomycin and linezolid with a 100% susceptibility rate. Rates of susceptibility of corynebacteria isolated from orthopedic samples and of isolates from blood cultures were comparable. In conclusion, our study results confirmed that Corynebacterium sp. -
