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

open access: yesMedical 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.

Inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus Biofilm Formation by Plumbagin Combined With Ceftazidime and Cefazolin

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Plumbagin can be potentially used in combination with antibiotics, as a safer, and effective agent solution against biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus in the healthcare, and food industry. ABSTRACT Biofilm‐forming Staphylococcus aureus is the major cause several foodborne diseases, and pose a serious challenge in the healthcare, and food industry.

Seasonal Restructuring of Microbial Communities and Resistomes in the Shitalakshya River, Bangladesh Revealed by Shotgun Metagenomics

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Dry‐season pollutant concentration drives microbial restructuring in Bangladesh's Shitalakshya River, shifting communities from Myroides to stress‐tolerant genera while enriching metal resistance genes and efflux pumps, revealing non‐antibiotic co‐selection as a key driver of antimicrobial resistance in urban waters.

Colistin Resistance Development Following Colistin-Meropenem Combination Therapy Versus Colistin Monotherapy in Patients With Infections Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Organisms

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2019
Abstract Background We evaluated whether carbapenem-colistin combination therapy reduces the emergence of colistin resistance, compared to colistin monotherapy, when given to patients with infections due to carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative organisms.

Detection of OXA‐23 Among Carbapenem‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Isolated From Intensive Care Units of a Tertiary Care Hospital in Pakistan

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Graphical Abstract of the Experimental Workflow for CRAB Isolate Characterization. ABSTRACT Carbapenem‐resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) has been designated a top‐priority critical pathogen by the World Health Organization, and the CDC has also classified it as a serious and immediate public health threat. The Cross‐sectional study was conducted

Comparative in vivo evaluation of colistin resistance determinants in Escherichia coli clone ST131Research in context

open access: yesEBioMedicine
Summary: Background: Colistin is a last-resort antimicrobial for multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative infections. Health risks associated with colistin resistance are commonly inferred from resistance phenotypes, despite limited in vivo evidence ...

Longitudinal Molecular Epidemiology and Genomic Surveillance of Carbapenem‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in the Gut of Healthy Individuals in China

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using 16,040 stool samples from healthy individuals across 30 Chinese provinces (2016–2024), we performed longitudinal genomic surveillance of carbapenem‑resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) colonizing the gut. We reveal rising community CRKP prevalence, especially in southern China, a shift from blaKPC‐2 to plasmid‑borne blaNDM‐5 on IncHI2/IncHI2A ...

Adaptive colistin resistance dynamics in mcr-9-positive and -negative Enterobacterales following low-level colistin exposure

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
The mcr-9 gene has been reported across different sources and was recognized as a potential contributor to increased minimum inhibitory concentrations after colistin exposure. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of intestinal carriage of the mcr-

Vibrio Community Structure Shapes the Diversity of Carbenicillin‐Hydrolysing Class A β‐Lactamase Circulating in European Coastal Environments

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2026.
Vibrio communities shape carbenicillinase diversity in European coasts. Sediments serve as reservoirs of antibiotic‐resistant Vibrio alginolyticus, which can move into the water column and accumulate in bivalves. This spreads β‐lactamase resistance and raises human exposure risks to antibiotic‐resistant pathogenic Vibrio, especially as higher seawater ...

Resistance to Colistin in Klebsiella pneumoniae: A 4.0 Strain?

open access: yesInfectious Disease Reports, 2017
The global rise of multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria represents an increasing threat to patient safety. From the first observation of a carbapenem-resistant gramnegative bacteria a global spread of extendedspectrum beta-lactamases and carbapenemases producing Klebsiella pneumoniae has been observed. Treatment options for multidrug-resistant K.
