In silico genomic insights into bacteriophages infecting ESBL-producing Escherichia coli from human, animal, and environmental sources

BMC Microbiology
Background The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Escherichia coli, particularly extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing E. coli (ESBL-EC), is a global public health concern.

Evaluation of a Product Intended for Microbiological Control in Animal Production, and Its Combination With Halquinol

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Activo Liquid and Halquinol inhibit Salmonella and Escherichia coli in culture media. Activo Liquid exhibits bactericidal action, whereas HA is bacteriostatic, and their combination results in positive or indifferent interactions. This combination effectively inhibits E. coli throughout digestion simulation, thus reducing the required concentrations of

Recent Trends in Enzyme‐Based Biosensors for On‐Site Screening of Antibiotic Residues

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, EarlyView.
Antibiotic pollution pathways and biosensor intervention for effective monitoring and control of antimicrobial resistance. Abstract Antibiotics are used to treat both humans and animals for both preventive and therapeutic purposes. The overreliance on and misuse of antibiotics has given rise to a stealth pandemic, known as antimicrobial resistance (AMR)

Vaccines against antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in enterobacteriaceae

, 2021
Enterobacteriaceae is a group of nosocomial pathogens that can colonize various sites and cause serious infections when host defenses are compromised. In this group of bacteria multi-drug resistant organisms have been described. AMR keeps spreading and while antibiotic development will always be subjected to the appearance of resistance, vaccines ...

Advances in Small Molecule Inhibitors Targeting the Bacterial Lipoprotein Transport System (Lol) in Gram‐Negative Bacteria

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, EarlyView.
The lipoprotein transport system (Lol) is a crucial target for combating multidrug‐resistant gram‐negative bacteria. This review discusses the structural and functional aspects of the LolABCDE complex, recent advances in small‐molecule inhibitors, and challenges, such as permeability and resistance.

Design and Synthesis of Triazole‐Based p‐tert‐Butylcalix[4]Arene Conjugates and Evaluation of Their Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm, and Anti‐Quorum‐Sensing Activities

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Macrocyclic calix[n]arenes have many applications, with diverse structures that can easily be functionalized either on upper or lower rims, mostly to impart solubility and improve biological activities. In this study, triazole‐based p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]arene conjugates (AT10a and AT10b) and their p‐tert‐butylphenol analogs (AT10b and AT11b ...

A systematic scoping review of metrics utilized to measure antibiotic consumption in hospital settings

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs were introduced to promote the judicious use of antimicrobials and to combat antimicrobial resistance. Quantifying antibiotic consumption is an important part of AMS initiatives to achieve these objectives.

Wild birds as a reservoir of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the environment

, 2021
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the greatest public health threats and has been conceptualised as a slowly emerging disaster. Studies have suggested that wild birds contribute as a reservoir and dispersal route of AMR, and proximity to anthropogenic activity has been associated with higher prevalence of AMR.
