The bacterium responsible for causing tuberculosis is increasing its resistance to antibiotics resulting in new multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively drug-resistant M. tuberculosis (XDR-TB) strains. In this study, several analytical techniques including NMR, FT-ICR, MALDI-MS, and LC–MS are used to study different aspects of the Copper–polyethylene glycol (PEG)–Amikacin complex. The Cu(II) cation and the aggregate formed by PEG serve as a carrier for the antibiotic. Several Cu–PEG–Amikacin complex variations were tested against NIH-NIAID cell lines containing both resistant and nonresistant strains of M. tuberculosis.
导致结核病的细菌对抗生素的耐药性正在增强,从而产生了新的耐多药结核分枝杆菌(MDR-TB)和广泛耐药结核分枝杆菌(XDR-TB)菌株。在本研究中,使用了包括核磁共振(NMR)、傅里叶变换离子回旋共振(FT-ICR)、基质辅助激光解吸电离质谱(MALDI-MS)和液相色谱-质谱联用(LC-MS)在内的多种分析技术,来研究铜-聚乙二醇(PEG)-阿米卡星复合物的不同方面。铜(II)阳离子和由PEG形成的聚集体作为抗生素的载体。针对含有耐药和非耐药结核分枝杆菌菌株的美国国立卫生研究院-国家过敏和传染病研究所(NIH-NIAID)细胞系,测试了几种铜-PEG-阿米卡星复合物变体。
