Journal of Antimicrobial Agents

Daily operations on wounded soldiers are performed at front-line hospitals. Because diagnostic procedures are not easily available during war and antibiotics are given to patients with suspected infection, it is crucial to assess the resistance patterns of pathogens that colonize the environment at hospitals in order to establish routines and guidelines to decrease antibiotic misuse. In this study, we assessed the source of postsurgical infection caused by multiple resistant gram-negative bacteria by performing culture tests in water samples taken from wastewater, a sink in the operation room, and soap at intensive care units from five military hospitals in northern Syria. Although it was not possible to further characterize the bacteria found on the agarose dishes, cultures taken from moist environments at intensive care units grew colonies of gram-negative bacteria resistant to several available antimicrobial agents. In conclusion, we found that colonized bacteria in pipes, wastewater, soap, or bottles containing disinfectants may be sources of nosocomial infection in postoperative patients. Environmental assessment and regular controls are needed to yield valuable information regarding contamination and the susceptibility of bacteria to antimicrobial agents.

This work is written in actual situation by which some covid vaccine are under deeply investigation related some rare cases of thrombosis. It is really interesting to observe the literature that have reported in first and second â?? third wave of covid-19 disease a relationship with increase thrombosis in the most severe patients. So it is possible to say that there is a procoagulant property of covid-19 virus. But this property is related to all virus particle or it can be mediated or due by the spike-protein? And if there is this relationship it was a real good feature di project vaccine based on this protein? To investigate in this direction can be a good instrument to better understand some unclear aspect of this Vaccine rapid production

The awards are presented to the individuals to recognize their continued hard work in bringing the future of drugs to treat many diseases.
