A complex treatment of a patient with acute amitriptyline and cyclodol poisoning using enterosorption, intestinal lavage and hemosorption on a new column with a synthetic sorbent is presented. A two-layer synthetic polymer column developed for the selective sorption of cytokines by direct hemoperfusion was used for hemosorption. Quantitative determinations of amitriptyline and cyclodol levels before and after the column, as well as before and after hemosorption have showed high efficiency of the sorbent to remove the toxicant from the blood. The use of 6-hour hemosorption allowed to reduce the level of amitriptyline from the initial level by more than 4 times and the level of cyclodol - by more than 3 times to therapeutic levels and to obtain a pronounced positive clinical effect in the complex treatment of a patient with severe poisoning.

: In recent years, over use of antibiotics has been raising its head to a serious problem all around the world as pathogens become drug resistant and create challenges to the medical field. This failure of most potent antibiotics that kill pathogens increases the thirst for research to look further way of killing pathogens. It has been led to the findings of antimicrobial peptide which is the most potent peptide to destroy pathogens. This review gives special emphasis to the usage of marine bacteria and other microorganisms for antimicrobial peptide (AMP) which are eco friendly as well as a developing class of natural and synthetic peptides with a wide spectrum of targets to pathogenic microbes. Consequently, a significant attention has been paid mainly to (i) the structure and types of anti microbial peptides and (ii) mode of action and mechanism of antimicrobial peptide resistance to pathogens. In addition to this, the designing of AMPs has been analysed thoroughly for reducing toxicity and developing better potent AMP. It has been done by the modified unnatural amino acids by amidation to target the control of biofilm and persister cell.
