Biocide-Resistant Escherichia coli ST540 Co-Harboring ESBL, dfrA14 Confers QnrS-Dependent Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance

Antibiotics, 2022
Emerging sequence types of pathogenic bacteria have a dual ability to acquire resistance islands/determinants, and remain renitent towards disinfection practices; therefore, they are considered “critical risk factors” that contribute significantly to the

Phenotypic Characterization and Heterogeneity among Modern Clinical Isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogenic bacterium prioritized by WHO and CDC because of its increasing antibiotic resistance. Heterogeneity among strains represents the hallmark of A. baumannii bacteria.

Geraniol-a potential alternative to antibiotics for bovine mastitis treatment without disturbing the host microbial community or causing drug residues and resistance

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Mastitis is one of the most prevalent diseases of dairy cows. Currently, mastitis treatment in dairy cows is mainly based on antibiotics. However, the use of antibiotics causes adverse effects, including drug resistance, drug residues, host-microbiome ...

Quorum-Sensing Regulation of Antimicrobial Resistance in Bacteria

Microorganisms, 2020
Quorum sensing is a cell-to-cell communication system that exists widely in the microbiome and is related to cell density. The high-density colony population can generate a sufficient number of small molecule signals, activate a variety of downstream ...

From environment to clinic: the role of pesticides in antimicrobial resistance

Revista Panamericana de Salud Pública, 2020
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in pathogens has been associated mainly with excessive use of antibiotics. Most studies of resistance have focused on clinical pathogens; however, microorganisms are exposed to numerous anthropogenic substances. Few studies
