Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.

Human metallo-β-lactamase enzymes degrade penicillin

Scientific Reports, 2019
Nonribosomal peptides are assemblages, including antibiotics, of canonical amino acids and other molecules. β-lactam antibiotics act on bacterial cell walls and can be cleaved by β-lactamases.

Isolation of carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms from samples of raw‐meat diets for dogs in the UK

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms are an emerging threat in veterinary medicine that also have zoonotic potential. However, little is known about the prevalence and risks of these organisms in pet food. We present the incidental finding of gram‐negative ESKAPE organisms within samples of raw meat diets for dogs in the United Kingdom ...

Prevalence and Genomic Characterization of mcr‐Positive Enterobacteriaceae in Retail Meat in Thailand Following the Colistin Ban

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of mcr‐positive Enterobacteriaceae in retail meat in Thailand following the national ban on prophylactic colistin use in food producing animals. A total of 152 meat samples (103 chicken and 49 pork) were collected from supermarkets and open markets between July and September ...

Clinically Significant Infections in Surgical Mortality

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Clinically significant infections (CSIs) are a common complication identified in cases of surgical mortality, associated with prolonged hospital stays, unplanned escalation of care and increased risk of death. This study aimed to examine the burden of CSIs in surgical deaths in the Australian Capital Territory and identify ...
