Adjuvant Antibacterial Effects of Mouriri Elliptica Against Clinical Multidrug Resistant Gram‐Negative Bacterial Strains

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
The ethanolic leaf extract of Mouriri elliptica exhibited antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates and enhanced the activity of ampicillin. Its diverse chemical profile and low acute toxicity support this Cerrado species as a promising source of natural antibacterial adjuvants. ABSTRACT Bacterial resistance

Phosphate sensitivity of KPC-2: a hidden variable in β-lactamase kinetics

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
The catalytic activity of β-lactamases, particularly class A enzymes like KPC-2, is central to β-lactam antibiotic resistance. While phosphate buffers are widely used in enzymatic assays due to their physiological relevance, their potential to interfere ...

Molecular Diagnostics for WHO Priority Bacterial Pathogens: A Bibliometric Mapping of Diagnostic Platforms, Resistance Markers, and Antimicrobial Resistance Research Trends

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
This bibliometric mapping of 1746 publications (2000–2025) charts molecular diagnostics for WHO priority bacterial pathogens across platforms, targets, and resistance markers. Conventional PCR/NAAT and whole‐genome sequencing emerge as complementary core platforms, and the field evolves from targeted pathogen detection into an AMR‐centered ...

Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Two Novel Enterobacter Phages With EDTA‐Enhanced Antibiofilm Activity

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Two novel lytic Enterobacter phages, HHH and RZH, displayed targeted antibiofilm activity against MDR Enterobacter cloacae complex biofilms when combined with EDTA. Activity was strongest within a narrow low‐millimolar EDTA window, reducing biofilm biomass and viable burden, while higher EDTA concentrations shifted the interaction towards antagonism ...

Genetic Diversity and Epidemiological Overlap of Staphylococcus aureus at the Animal–Food–Environment–Human Interface Within a One Health Framework

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Integrating farm‐to‐fork and clinical surveillance, this study reveals distinct SCCmec distributions alongside shared spa types across human, animal, and food interfaces. The results of genetic diversity and epidemiological overlap underscore the critical need for coordinated One Health surveillance to monitor multi‐sectoral Staphylococcus aureus ...

Repression of Virulence in Staphylococcus aureus by 2‐Aminothiol‐Mediated Quorum Quenching

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 37, 7 September 2026.
Simple analogues of cysteine that can eliminate the native autoinducing peptides (AIPs) of staphylococci extracellularly, before they activate their receptor, and turn off quorum sensing in different Staphylococcus aureus. The elimination of AIPs occurs through a mechanism similar to native chemical ligation (NCL). Further, this strategy showed promise
