Methods： Experiments in vitro, measuring the MICS, MBCS of levofloxacin（LFX）, ceftazidime（CAZ） in PAO579 in alginate beads and planktonic PAO579. Rats were challenged with 0.1 ml of PAO579（109CFU/ml） in alginate beads or 0.1 ml of planktonic PAO579（109CFU/ml）, 3,7,14 days after challenging, bacteriological, pathological features were observed. Results： The MICS, MBCS of LFX, CAZ in PAO579 in alginate beads were higher than those in planktonic PAO579 in vitro. CFU/lung in alginate beads group was significantly higher than that in planktonic bacteria group（P = 0.002, P = 0.004, P = 0.002, respectively）; macroscopic lung pathology and the inflammation in alginate beads group were significantly more severe compared to those in planktonic bacteria group in vivo. Conclusion： P.aeruginosa biofilm protected bacterium from killing of antibiotics and might mediate the host immune damage in the lung tissue and made bacterium evade the host immune defense.展开更多

Effects ofO--PS were observed by in vitro experiment,(HeLa cell Culture ), and in vivo experiment(rabbit lieal loop assay).RESULTS ID vitro and in vivo e-cP6riments withthe purified O--PS from Shigells flexnefi revealedthat the O--PS alone was toxic to Hela cells andcaused mucosal inflammation and hemorrhagicexudation in lieal loop of rabbit.DISCUSSION O--PS might b6 one of the factorscausing diarrhea and its mechanism wasdifferent from endotoxin reaction of LPS. Themolecular mechanism of O-PS need furtherstudies.展开更多
