Microbiological screening is necessary to distinguish carriers of plasmid-mediated AmpC beta-lactamase-producing enterobacteriaceae and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae because of clinical similarity. [PDF]
Plasmid-mediated AmpC beta-lactamase-producing (pAmpC) Enterobacteriaceae are increasing worldwide, difficult to identify and often confounded with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producers.

Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases

Revealing Cell‐Free Mitochondrial DNA Breakage Patterns as Novel Biomarkers for Sepsis
Uncovering distinct plasma cfmtDNA breakage patterns opens new frontiers for early sepsis detection and prognosis. Unique cleavage hotspots in RNR2 and COX2 regions outperform traditional biomarkers, while mechanistic insights suggest bacterial endonuclease involvement.
