When First‐Line Therapies Fail: Surgical Site Infections and the Declining Antimicrobial Utility in a Resource‐Limited Nation

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
In Belize, a 7‐year nationwide study reveals a sharp rise in antimicrobial resistance in surgical infections. ESBL‐producing bacteria more than doubled to > 45%, with critical treatment gaps and geographic hotspots identified. Sentinel pan‐drug‐resistant cases and a correlation between antibiotic use and resistance underscore the urgent need for ...

Comprehensive analysis of bacteriocins produced by clinical enterococcal isolates and their antibacterial activity against Enterococci including VRE

Scientific Reports
It is well-known that Enterococcus species produce bacteriocins that have antibacterial activity. However, a comprehensive analysis of the bacteriocin distribution among Enterococcus strains has not been conducted.

Effects of probiotic dietary supplementation on diarrhoea patterns, faecal microbiota and performance of early weaned calves

Veterinární Medicína, 2010
Twenty Lithuanian Black-and-White calves (10 bulls, 10 heifers) were used to evaluate the effects of the supplemental probiotic product, Enterococcus faecium M74 (2.4 g/day/calve), added to fresh milk and skimmed milk in a 56 day-study. The probiotic was

Altered Pathogen Spectrum of Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis in Patients Treated With Proton Pump Inhibitors

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 11, Page 1487-1494, June 2026.
This multicenter, observational study reveals distinct alterations in the microbial spectrum of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) associated with proton pump inhibitor use. These results are especially relevant for guiding empiric antibiotic therapy of SBP.

Enterococcus faecalis resistant to vancomycin and teicoplanin (VanA phenotype) isolated from a bone marrow transplanted patient in Brazil [PDF]

, 2001
We report for the first time in Brazil, a patient from whom an Enterococcus faecalis VanA phenotype was isolated. Glycopeptide resistance is not commonly observed in Enterococcus faecalis, so this finding is of great concern since this species is ...

Pyrazolyl–Pyridine Ruthenium Complexes: A New Metallic Line of Defense Against Acinetobacter baumannii

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
Ruthenium(II) (Ru(II)) pyrazolyl–pyridine half‐sandwich complexes (C1–C6) were synthesized and structurally characterized as prospective metalloantibiotics. Screening through the Community for Open Antimicrobial Drug Discovery (CO‐ADD) revealed selective activity against Acinetobacter baumannii, with favorable cytotoxicity profiles. Biophysical studies
