New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase-5–Producing Escherichia coli in Companion Animals, United States

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We report isolation of a New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-5–producing carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli sequence type 167 from companion animals in the United States. Reports of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in companion animals are rare.

Antibiotic Resistance Profile of Wound Infection Isolates: High Resistance to Cephalosporins and Penicillin Among Ghanaian Patients in a Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Antibiotics remain among the most frequently prescribed medications in clinical practice. However, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an inevitable and irreversible consequence of bacterial adaptation to antimicrobial exposure.

Emergence of Fosfomycin Resistance Among ESBL‐Producing Escherichia coli in Abadan, Southwestern Iran

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Escherichia coli is a key pathogen responsible for various infections, such as urinary tract infections, gastroenteritis, and wound infections. The increasing occurrence of antimicrobial resistance, particularly in extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBL)‐producing strains, poses a significant global health threat.

Mechanism for carbapenem resistance of clinical Enterobacteriaceae isolates

Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2017
Carbapenemase-producing 'super bacteria', particularly NDM-1 and its variants, have become a major public health concern worldwide. The present study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism for carbapenem resistance of clinical Enterobacteriaceae isolates.

When First‐Line Therapies Fail: Surgical Site Infections and the Declining Antimicrobial Utility in a Resource‐Limited Nation

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
In Belize, a 7‐year nationwide study reveals a sharp rise in antimicrobial resistance in surgical infections. ESBL‐producing bacteria more than doubled to > 45%, with critical treatment gaps and geographic hotspots identified. Sentinel pan‐drug‐resistant cases and a correlation between antibiotic use and resistance underscore the urgent need for ...

Wastewater‐Based Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance and Bacterial Communities in Urban and Rural Areas in the Province of Trento (Italy)

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Wastewater from urban and rural areas was analyzed to investigate antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria and resistance genes. ESBL‐Escherichia coli and genes coding for clinically relevant resistances, namely, those to macrolides, carbapenems, and vancomycin, were higher in urban than in rural areas.
