Abstract:

 Background: Probiotics alter gut microbiota composition and diversity. Research indicates that probiotic supplementation might enhance glucose homeostasis and reduce inflammation in patients with type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to investigate how particular probiotic strains (VHBAX Bacillus coagulans) affect glucose homeostasis and appetite-related behaviours associated with metabolic illnesses such as obesity and type Ⅱ diabetes in a zebrafish model.

Studies on bacterial infections of diabetic foot ulcer

J Hena, L Growther

 

Abstract

Microbial study for aerobic organisms from 100 cases of diabetic foot ulcers was carried out to determine the etiological agents and their antibiogram. Polymicrobial infection was observed in all the cases. The most frequently isolated aerobic organisms were Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of the isolates were done in which imepenem was found to be effective. Imipenem belongs to the ß lactam group of new generation antibiotics.

Key words: Diabetes, Imipenam, Foot ulcer.
