Microbiota Depletion Promotes Human Rotavirus Replication in an Adult Mouse Model
2021
Intestinal microbiota-virus-host interaction has emerged as a key factor in mediating enteric virus pathogenicity. With the aim of analyzing whether human gut bacteria improve the inefficient replication of human rotavirus in mice, we performed fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) with healthy infants as donors in antibiotic-treated mice. We showed that a simple antibiotic treatment, irrespective of FMT, resulted in viral shedding for 6 days after challenge with the human rotavirus G1P[8] genotype Wa strain (RVwa). Rotavirus titers in feces were also significantly higher in antibiotic-treated animals with or without FMT but they were decreased in animals subject to self-FMT, where a partial re…
Replication of Human Norovirus in Mice after Antibiotic-Mediated Intestinal Bacteria Depletion
2022
Human noroviruses (HuNoVs) are the main cause of acute gastroenteritis causing more than 50,000 deaths per year. Recent evidence shows that the gut microbiota plays a key role in enteric virus infectivity. In this context, we tested whether microbiota depletion or microbiota replacement with that of human individuals susceptible to HuNoVs infection could favor viral replication in mice. Four groups of mice (n = 5) were used, including a control group and three groups that were treated with antibiotics to eliminate the autochthonous intestinal microbiota. Two of the antibiotic-treated groups received fecal microbiota transplantation from a pool of feces from infants (age 1-3 months) or an au…

Antibiotic susceptibility of the bacteria causing odontogenic infections
2006
Objetivos: Identificar la flora bacteriana y su susceptibilidad a varios antibióticos utilizados en infecciones odontogénicas de localización periapical y en las pericoronaritis del tercer molar inferior, para poder adaptar convenientemente el tratamiento antibiótico a las exigencias de tales infecciones, y evitar así los efectos secundarios y los sobretratamientos con antibióticos. Material y métodos: Se han seleccionado con unos criterios de inclusión y de exclusión a 64 pacientes que presentaban una infección odontogénica. Se recogieron muestras de las lesiones en condiciones de máxima asepsia, evitando la contaminación por flora saprófita bucal. Las muestras se sembraron en medios de cu…
Un ecosistema malalt: la lluita contra la resistència a antibiòtics des d’una perspectiva global
2013
La produccio antropogenica d'antibiotics ha provocat una malaltia dels ecosistemes microbians de dimensio planetaria, la repercussio mes immediata de la qual per a l'home es la intractabilitat de les infeccions. La comprensio del fenomen i les possibilitats d'intervencio requereixen nous metodes conceptuals, analitics i tecnologics.
Antibiotic prescription in the treatment of odontogenic infection by health professionals: a factor to consensus
2011
Objective: To observe the attitude of dentists and family doctors in prescribing antibiotics for the treatment of dental infections. Study Design: A poll was performed to determine the differences in the prescription of antibiotics for the treatment of odontogenic infection by dentists and family doctors of the primary care department of the Catalan Health Care Service. Results: A hundred polls were distributed among family doctors, and another 100 ones among primary care dentists assigned to the Catalan Health Care Service of the Generalitat de Catalunya. Of the total of questionnaires distributed, 63 were retuned and answered from dentists and 71 from family doctors. Eighty-one percent of…
Determination of crown discoloration and fluorescence induced by different medications used in regenerative endodontic procedures: An ex vivo study
2021
Background Crown discoloration is an undesirable side effect of the use of triple antibiotic paste (TAP) in regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs). The aim of this ex vivo study was to assess the potential for tooth discoloration and induction of fluorescence associated with the use of TAP containing either doxycycline (DOX) or clindamycin (CLIN), and of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), by spectrophotometric analysis and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Material and methods A total of forty single-rooted human teeth extracted by therapeutic indication were used. The root canals were enlarged using the step-back technique up to a K #80 file and were randomly divided into four experi…
Analysis of the antibiotic prophylaxis prescribed by Spanish oral surgeons
2009
Aim: To identify prophylactic antibiotic prescription practices among Spanish dentists with preferential dedication to Oral Surgery in different types of tooth extraction surgeries. Method: Members of the Spanish Oral Surgery Society were surveyed on antibiotic prophylaxis use in 4 different tooth extraction modalities scaled according to their surgical invasiveness. Results: Sixty-nine of the 105 distributed questionnaires were returned completed. Thirteen percent of the surveyed surgeons would prescribe antibiotics to prevent postoperative wound infection when confronted with conventional tooth extraction lasting less than 5 minutes. In the case of surgery lasting more than 5 minutes, the…
Enterobacteris en productes vegetals frescos: resistències als antibiòtics
2015
En aquest treball s’ha estudiat la presència d’enterobacteris en productes vegetals frescos que poden consumir-se directament, sense tractaments que poden afectar a la viabilitat dels microorganismes presents en aquests vegetals. Com material d’estudi s’han seleccionat una sèrie de verdures i hortalisses que habitualment poden consumir-se crues (tomates, enciams, rúcula, canonges, etc.), adquirides en distints establiments de la ciutat de València i els seus voltants, ja que la zona de l’horta de València es caracteritza, a més de per la qualitat i quantitat de la producció hortícola, per l’ús de pràctiques agrícoles (com l’ús de fem com adob) que afavoreixen la contaminació dels vegetals a…
