The present invention provides for methods of preventing IBS, preventing long term irregular bowel pattern, reducing the likelihood of developing or having IBS, reducing the likelihood of developing or having long term irregular bowel pattern, mitigating IBS, mitigating long term irregular bowel pattern and reducing the likelihood of developing non-ulcer dyspepsia. The methods comprise providing an antibiotic and administering the antibiotic to a subject in need thereof.

The pharmaceutical composition is a combination of hydrolytic lignin with moisture of 55% to 65% consisting of the particles measuring 0.15 mm to 0.55 mm, a 45% to 55% aqueous lactulose solution, and a 50% to 55% aqueous oligosaccharide solution at the following ingredient ratio (weight percent): 10-60 of an aqueous lactulose solution; 10-60 of oligosaccharides; sufficient quantity of hydrolytic lignin. Hydrolytic lignin, lactulose and fructose oligosaccharides are sequentially added and mixed using a rotor blender. The composition is administered orally for no less than 14 days and no more than 30 days, two to four times a day, depending on the patient's weight and age. The composition is used as a medicine for treatment of the gastrointestinal disorders, including bacterial, viral, protozoal enteric infections, food poisoning, acute and chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis, diarrhea, peptic ulcer, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, mineral disorders with Ca / Mg deficiency, including osteoporosis and other alterations of the bone formation, as an immunomodulator in atopic dermatitis and immunodeficiency conditions, for protection and recovery of intestinal flora after antibiotic therapy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. The result is accelerated achievement of the effect and the enhanced action on the state of intestinal microbiocenosis as well as increased effectiveness of treatment of hepatitis and liver cirrhosis, elimination of undesired adverse effects in clinical usage, and extension of indications, i.e. the extended spectrum of usage in prevention and treatment.

An integrated device for diagnostic analyzes used to verify the presence of bacteria in at least a biological sample mixed with a eugonic culture medium in liquid form, to classify at least the type of bacteria, and to test a series of antibiotics, selected from a group of characteristic antibiotics at least for the type of bacteria identified, identifying those effective to determine the antibiotic therapy. The device comprises, inside an integrated structure, first containing means provided with containing elements in which the biological samples to be analyzed are distributed, second containing means comprising recipients or micro-plates thermostated with wells containing a eugonic culture medium in liquid form in which a first fraction of the biological samples to be analyzed is dispensed, and a first recipient and second recipients or plates with a relative first well and second wells in which a further fraction of the biological samples which resulted positive to the analysis is dispensed.

An antimicrobial peptide and its analogs that are insensitive to physiological salt and divalent cation concentrations is provided, as are methods for their use to treat and prevent bacterial infections. The peptides are especially useful to treat infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to traditional antibiotic therapy.

The invention relates to the field of molecular immunology. In recent years, tuberculosis revives in the global range. The emergence of drug-resistant strain always invalidates antibiotic therapy and the normally used tuberculosis vaccine-BCG vaccine also has limitations. The invention aims at screening the molecular simulation peptide of epitope which can activate the protective immune response of human anti-mycobacterium tuberculosis, studying the protective immune response mechanism of the tuberculosis and further developing a novel concatenated poly epitope tuberculosis vaccine. The invention provides the molecular simulation peptide of the epitope which can activate the protective immune response of human anti-mycobacterium tuberculosis; the amino acid sequence of the peptide is shown as SEQ ID NO:14. The invention further provides a screening method and the function of the peptide. Therefore, the molecular simulation peptide of the invention can more effectively prevent and control the generation and the development of the tuberculosis.
