Carbapenems are a class of antibiotics that are generally reserved to treat life-threatening invasive infections including sepsis.

However, its role in the progression of CF lung infection is poorly understood. Additionally, whether it forms biofilms in the lungs of people with CF is an open question. The development of synthetic CF sputum media (SCFM) has given key insights into the microbiology of later CF pathogens, <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> and <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, through replicating the chemical composition of CF sputum. However, the growth of NTHi in these media has not previously been reported. We show that NTHi grows poorly in three variants of SCFM commonly used to induce <i>in vivo</i>-like growth of <i>P. aeruginosa</i> and <i>S. aureus</i> (SCFM1, SCFM2 and SCFM3). The addition of NAD and haemin to SCFM1 and SCFM2 promoted the planktonic growth and biofilm formation of both laboratory and clinical NTHi isolates, and we were able to develop a modified variant of SCFM2 that allows culture of NTHis. We show that NTHi cannot be identified in an established <i>ex vivo</i> model of CF infection, which uses SCFM and porcine bronchiolar tissue. This may in part be due to the presence of endogenous bacteria on the pig lung tissue, which outcompete NTHi, but the lack of selective agar to isolate NTHi from endogenous bacteria, and the fact that NTHi is an exclusively human pathogen, makes it hard to conclude that this is the case. Through spiking modified SCFM2 with filter-sterilized lung homogenate, biofilm growth of clinical NTHi isolates was enhanced. Our results highlight that there are crucial components present in the lung tissue, which NTHi require for growth, which are not present in any published variant of SCFM from the Palmer <i>et al.</i> Endres and Konstan in JAMA (2022;137:191-1) lineage.

This process of learning through experience enables students to develop a deeper understanding of the theoretical material as well as valuable real-world skills. However, there is often a disconnect between the authentic, real-world context of performing laboratory skills and the method of instruction within higher education. This study developed two student laboratory manuals; one which followed a traditionally linear 'week by week' format, and another which took inspiration from a publication format and listed the protocols in a distinct 'methods' section. The effect the change of layout had on student learning was assessed through analysis of student summative assessment and interaction with the online learning environment. Additionally, the effect on student confidence and perceived technical skills development was assessed through a student survey. The differences in layout resulted in no significant differences in student assessment performance but did result in higher levels of engagement with the online learning environment. The student survey reported an increase in technical confidence (21%) and skill (31%) with the authentic 'methods' section layout changes compared to the traditional format.
