Abstract:
Compositions and methods, including novel homogeneous microparticulate suspensions, are described for treating natural surfaces that contain bacterial biofilm, including unexpected synergy or enhancing effects between bismuth-thiol (BT) compounds and certain antibiotics, to provide formulations including antiseptic formulations. Previously unpredicted antibacterial properties and anti-biofilm properties of disclosed BT compounds and BT compound-plus-antibiotic combinations are also described, including preferential efficacies of certain such compositions for treating certain gram-positive bacterial infections, and distinct preferential efficacies of certain such compositions for treating certain gram-negative bacterial infections.

Claim (Index 2):
The method of  claim 1  wherein the bacterial pathogen comprises at least one of: (i) one or more gram-negative bacteria; (ii) one or more gram-positive bacteria; (iii) one or more antibiotic-sensitive bacteria; (iv) one or more antibiotic-resistant bacteria; (v) a bacterial pathogen that is selected from the group consisting of  Staphylococcus aureus  ( S. aureus ), MRSA (methicillin-resistant  S. aureus ),  Staphylococcus epidermidis , MRSE (methicillin-resistant  S. epidermidis ),  Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium avium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa , drug-resistant  P. aeruginosa, Escherichia coli , enterotoxigenic  E. coli , enterohemorrhagic  E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Clostridium difficile, Heliobacter pylori, Legionella pneumophila, Enterococcus faecalis , methicillin-susceptible  Enterococcus faecalis, Enterobacter cloacae, Salmonella typhimurium, Proteus vulgaris, Yersinia enterocolitica, Vibrio cholera, Shigella flexneri , vancomycin-resistant  Enterococcus  (VRE),  Burkholderia cepacia  complex,  Francisella tularensis, Bacillus anthracis, Yersinia pestis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pneumonia , penicillin-resistant  Streptococcus pneumonia, Escherichia coli, Burkholderia cepacia, Bukholderia multivorans, Mycobacterium smegmatis  and  Acinetobacter baumannii.
