Chong, Y., Hwang, I., Tavassoli, A., Zhang, Y., Wilson, I.A., Benkovic, S.J., ...

Structurally-related, but non-polyglutamylatable, derivatives of 10-CF3CO-DDACTHF (1), which incorporate l-glutamine (2) and l-isoglutamine (3) in place of l-glutamate, were prepared and evaluated as...

Technology validation of the autonomous formation flying sensor for precision formation flying (2004)

Tien, J. Y., Purcell, G. H., Amaro, L. R., Young, L. E., Aung, M., Srinivasan, J. M., ...

In this paper we describe the key technology challenges, the approach to resolving them through analysis and testbed activities, and the results of the testbed activities.

Evaluation of Efficiency of Screening Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in Hospitals Where the Bacteria Are Increasingly Prevalent

Lee, K., Lim, J. K., Yong, D., Yum, J., Chong, Y., Okamoto, R., ...

The disk screening methods for extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing strains were evaluated. The confirmatory work is reduced significantly in settings such as those in this study, by changing the...

Comparative characterization of the cephamycinase blaCMY-1 gene and its relationship with other beta-lactamase genes.

Bauernfeind, A, Stemplinger, I, Jungwirth, R, Wilhelm, R, Chong, Y

A plasmidic beta-lactamase which hydrolyzed cephamycins was first detected and reported in 1989. At that time its description was restricted to phenotypic characteristics. We analyzed nucleotide...

Comparison of aminoglycoside resistance patterns in Japan, Formosa, and Korea, Chile, and the United States.

Shimizu, K, Kumada, T, Hsieh, W C, Chung, H Y, Chong, Y, Hare, R S, ...

The resistance mechanisms of more than 2,000 aminoglycoside-resistant gram-negative aerobic bacteria were estimated by a method that assigned a biochemical mechanism based on susceptibility to...

In vitro susceptibilities of the Bacteroides fragilis group to 14 antimicrobial agents in Korea.

Lee, K, Jang, I H, Kim, Y J, Chong, Y

The susceptibilities to 14 antimicrobial agents of 172 clinical isolates of the Bacteroides fragilis group from Korean patients during 1989 and 1990 were tested by an agar dilution method. All the...

Colorimetric microwell plate hybridization assay for detection of amplified Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA from sputum samples.

Cho, S N, Van Der Vliet, G M, Park, S, Baik, S H, Kim, S K, Chong, Y, ...

We developed a colorimetric microwell plate hybridization assay (CoMPHA) for the specific detection of 5'-biotinylated amplified Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA. The optical densities of the CoMPHA...

Evaluation of the Hodge Test and the Imipenem-EDTA Double-Disk Synergy Test for Differentiating Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing Isolates of Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp.

Lee, K., Lim, Y. S., Yong, D., Yum, J. H., Chong, Y.

Gram-negative bacilli with acquired metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) production have been increasingly reported in some countries, necessitating their detection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the...

Production of monoclonal antibody to a phenolic glycolipid of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its use in detection of the antigen in clinical isolates.

Cho, S N, Shin, J S, Daffe, M, Chong, Y, Kim, S K, Kim, J D

A monoclonal antibody (MAbIII604) specific to phenolic glycolipid Tb (PGL-Tb), a Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific antigen, was produced and used in the detection of the antigen. MAbIII604 reacted...

Acculturation and low-birthweight infants among Latino women: a reanalysis of HHANES data with structural equation models.

Cobas, J A, Balcazar, H, Benin, M B, Keith, V M, Chong, Y

Previous studies have demonstrated that acculturation is associated with negative birth outcomes among mothers in numerous immigrant populations, including Latinas. This study used structural...
