Effect of a glyphosate-containing herbicide on Escherichia coli and Salmonella Ser. Typhimurium in an in vitro rumen simulation system [PDF]
Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) is the most-used herbicide worldwide. Many studies in the past have shown that residues of the herbicide can be found in many cultivated plants, including those used as livestock feed.

Species‐specific 16S‐23S ITS and antibiotic resistance IntI, blaCTX‐M, blaTEM and blaSHV genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected, and most of the isolates were multidrug‐resistant. Target hazard quotient values of Fe for >1 revealed a higher level of hazard index. Target cancer risk values of Fe exceeded the recommended value (<10−4).

Upcoming Multi-drug-Resistant and Extensively Drug-Resistant Bacteria [PDF]
Multi-drug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) bacteria are becoming a serious global health issue, which may soon become untreatable by clinicians.

Development and application of an antibiotic spectrum index for benchmarking antibiotic selection patterns across hospitals [PDF]
Standard metrics for antimicrobial use consider volume but not spectrum of antimicrobial prescribing. We developed an antibiotic spectrum index (ASI) to classify commonly used antibiotics based on activity against important pathogens.

Comparison of virulence factors between ESBL and non-ESBL producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates
Background and Objectives: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for causing nosocomial and community-acquired infections. Its pathogenicity is associated with a variety of virulence factors and antibiotic resistance. The aim of the present study was to compare virulence attributes between ESBL and non-ESBL producing isolates.

Genetic Diversity of Polymyxin Resistance Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates
ABSTRACT This study investigates the genetic diversity and evolutionary mechanisms driving polymyxin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae, a critical priority pathogen. By analysing mgrB, phoPQ and pmrAB genes in susceptible (PM‐S) and resistant (PM‐R) populations through neutrality tests (Tajima D, Fu & Li's D) we uncovered polygenic adaptation and ...

Multiparametric determination of genes and their point mutations for identification of beta-lactamases [PDF]
More than half of all currently used antibiotics belong to the beta-lactam group, but their clinical effectiveness is severely limited by antibiotic resistance of microorganisms that are the causative agents of infectious diseases. Several mechanisms for

Background Carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has become a global public health threat, with significantly increased morbidity and mortality among high‐risk inpatients. High‐risk genotypes of CRKP, primarily including K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), oxacillinase‐48–like (OXA‐48–like), New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamase (NDM), imipenemase ...
