Antimicrobial profile of Acinetobacter baumannii at a tertiary hospital in Honduras: a cross-sectional analysis

open access: yesRevista Panamericana de Salud Pública, 2020
Acinetobacter baumannii is considered to be a worldwide threat to public health due to its high antimicrobial resistance rates and the severe infections it can cause. Little is known about this pathogen’s resistance in Central America.

The Impact of Triclosan on the Spread of Antibiotic Resistance in the Environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Triclosan (TCS) is a commonly used antimicrobial agent that enters wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and the environment. An estimated 1.1 × 105 to 4.2 × 105 kg of TCS are discharged from these WWTPs per year in the United States.

Updates on microbial resistance to drugs

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Microbiology Research, 2012
The treatment of bacterial infections and other microbial infections is increasingly complicated by the ability of bacteria and other microbes to develop resistance to antimicrobial agents. Microbial resistance to antimicrobial agents or chemotherapeutic agents had been attributed to their ability to bypass or overcome the various mechanisms by which ...

Transfer of Infectious Drug Resistance in Microbially Defined Mice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1969
Germ-free mice were intentionally associated with drug-resistant donor strains of Escherichia coli known to carry R factors and with drug-sensitive recipient strains. In vivo transfer of R factors was observed in all experiments, involving five different donor-recipient combinations.

The antimicrobial polymer PHMB enters cells and selectively condenses bacterial chromosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To combat infection and antimicrobial resistance, it is helpful to elucidate drug mechanism(s) of action. Here we examined how the widely used antimicrobial polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) kills bacteria selectively over host cells.

Breakthrough Solution for Antimicrobial Resistance Detection: Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy‐based on Artificial Intelligence

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView., 2023
This review discusses the use of Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI) for detecting antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Various SERS studies used with AI techniques, including machine learning and deep learning, are analyzed for their advantages and limitations.

Inactivation of the antidiabetic drug acarbose by human intestinal microbial-mediated degradation

open access: yesNature Metabolism, 2023
The antidiabetic drug acarbose is shown to be degraded by a Klebsiella species present in the human gut, which is enriched with acarbose treatment and might mediate acarbose resistance and variations in clinical efficacy observed in patients.

Emergence of Antimicrobial Resistance, Causes, Molecular Mechanisms, and Prevention Strategies: A Bovine Perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Emergence of the resistance in microbial population is a major threat to both animal and human health. In bovine, the development of microbial resistance is a persistent threat for health especially in the form of zoonotic pandemics due to viral and ...
