The StkSR Two-Component System Influences Colistin Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii

, 2022
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic human pathogen responsible for numerous severe nosocomial infections. Genome analysis on the A. baumannii clinical isolate 04117201 revealed the presence of 13 two-component signal transduction systems (TCS ...

Clinical Use of Colistin Induces Cross-Resistance to Host Antimicrobials in Acinetobacter baumannii

mBio, 2013
The alarming rise in antibiotic resistance has led to an increase in patient mortality and health care costs. This problem is compounded by the absence of new antibiotics close to regulatory approval.

Dual‐Functional Silent‐Region SERS Nanoplatform for Real‐Time Bacterial Tracking and Wound Healing Therapy

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 55, 5 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Bacterial wound infections, particularly those caused by Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are difficult to treat due to biofilm formation, multidrug resistance, and chronic inflammation. Here, we report a multifunctional nanoplatform based on a surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) probe that enables simultaneous photodynamic ...

Biosecurity Measures and Practices Relevant to Infectious Disease Management at Fish Farms in Northern Nigeria

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture helps to bridge Nigeria's fish supply deficit and thus contributes to national food security. Southwest Nigeria dominates national aquaculture output, but fish farming in northern Nigeria is expanding. Understanding the infectious disease situation in this burgeoning segment of the sector, including how farmers act to prevent and ...

Colistin-daptomycin, colistin-linezolid, colistin-vancomycin combination effects on colistin in multi-resistant acinetobacter baumannii strains

Medical Science and Discovery, 2018
Objective: The most important problem in the treatment of nosocomial Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) infections which is increasingly seen in recent years is that almost all strains are resistant to many antibiotics, including carbapenems, and that the extinction of antibiotic options to be used in treatment.

MCR-1 Confers Cross-Resistance to Bacitracin, a Widely Used In-Feed Antibiotic

mSphere, 2018
Extensive use of colistin in food animals is deemed a major driving force for the emergence and transmission of mcr-1. However, a non-colistin usage factor(s) contributing to mobile colistin resistance may also exist in animal production systems.

Effects of Indigenous Probiotic Bacterial Strains (Rossellomorea marisflavi, Micrococcus luteus, and Paucilactobacillus vaccinostercus) on Growth Performance, Survival, and Haematological Parameters of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Growing demand for sustainable aquaculture has intensified interest in non‐antibiotic strategies to enhance fish growth, health, and productivity. Host‐gut‐adapted indigenous probiotics have been proposed as promising alternatives to non‐native commercial strains, though their efficacy requires systematic evaluation.

Colistin Susceptibility and Plasmid Mediated mcr-1 Gene Prevalance among Multi Drug Resistant Clinical Isolates of Escherichia coli, Kebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa - A Hospital Based Cross Sectional Study

Journal of Medical Sciences and Health
Introduction: The treatment options for multi drug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug resistant (XDR) Gram negative bacterial infections are limited. Colistin based combination therapy remains the last option for such infections.

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 ...
