Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 19, Page 2947-2960, October 2026.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Hydrogels Augmented With Artificial Sweeteners can Inhibit Multidrug‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Growth and Biofilm Formation While Demonstrating Safety in Pre‐Clinical Pilot Human Trials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 39, 23 October 2026.
Using PVA–borax hydrogels as carriers for off‐the‐shelf artificial sweeteners to fight multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii. These soft, biocompatible hydrogels rapidly reduce bacterial viability within multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii biofilms by more than 99% within one hour and sustain antimicrobial activity over time, while demonstrating safety in both

Rapid Multiplex Antimicrobial Resistance Profiling and Bacterial Identification by LAP‐MALDI Mass Spectrometry Biotyping

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 60, 28 October 2026.
Liquid atmospheric pressure matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (LAP‐MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) provides multiplexed biotyping of microbial cultures using a fast and simple workflow. This is demonstrated for clinically relevant bacteria, resulting in accurate antimicrobial resistance (AMR) detection, speciation by MS/MS sequencing and ...

Chemical Composition, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Moroccan Equisetum ramosissimum Essential Oil and Butanolic Extract

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2026.
Moroccan Equisetum ramosissimum essential oil showed a distinct pulegone‐eudesmol‐rich profile and strain‐dependent antimicrobial activity, including against resistant isolates. The butanolic extract displayed stronger antioxidant activity in DPPH and β‐carotene bleaching assays, while docking suggested plausible interactions with selected microbial ...

Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacteriaceae in South and Southeast Asia [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2017
SUMMARYCarbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, in particular theAcinetobacter baumannii-calcoaceticuscomplex andEnterobacteriaceae, are escalating global public health threats. We review the epidemiology and prevalence of these carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria among countries in South and Southeast Asia, where the rates of resistance ...

Artificial Intelligence in Rapid Diagnostics for Antimicrobial Resistance: From Bench to Bedside

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most urgent global public health threats, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. In 2019, bacterial AMR was estimated to have directly caused approximately 1.27 million deaths and to have been associated with 4.95 million deaths worldwide.
