Control of Growth and Persistence of Listeria monocytogenes and β-Lactam-Resistant Escherichia coli by Thymol in Food Processing Settings

Molecules, 2020
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of thymol in controlling environmental contamination in food processing facilities. The effect of thymol was tested as an agent to prevent planktonic and bacterial biofilm growth of twenty ...

Wastewater-Based Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance and Bacterial Communities in Urban and Rural Areas in the Province of Trento (Italy). [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
Wastewater from urban and rural areas was analyzed to investigate antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria and resistance genes. ESBL‐Escherichia coli and genes coding for clinically relevant resistances, namely, those to macrolides, carbapenems, and vancomycin, were higher in urban than in rural areas.

Molecular characterisation of csgA gene among ESBL strains of A. baumannii and targeting with essential oil compounds from Azadirachta indica

, 2020
Objectives A.baumannii is considered as a “red alert” nosocomial human pathogen and exhibits an extensive antibiotic resistance spectrum. The biofilm formation mediated by the csgA is a potent virulence factor in A.baumannii and targeting the same would ...

Antibiotic Resistance Pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated from Clinical Specimens from a Tertiary Care Centre in Central Kerala with Special Reference to Carbapenemase Detection

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2021
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is inherently resistant to many drugs. It is now an emerging opportunistic pathogen of clinical relevance. The emergence of carbapenemases is another major concern.

Treatment Failure in Urinary Tract Infections: A Warning Witness for Virulent Multi-Drug Resistant ESBL- Producing Escherichia coli

Infection and Drug Resistance, 2020
Background Global increase in the prevalence of virulent extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), which is also multi-drug resistant (MDR), leads to increase in severity of urinary tract infections (UTIs ...

Prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and molecular detection of blaTEM, blaSHV and blaCTX-M genotypes among Enterobacteriaceae isolates from patients in Khartoum, Sudan

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2020
Introduction the emergence of antibiotic resistance pathogens is an important health risk. Usually Gram negative bacteria acquire resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics by beta-lactamase production.

Multi-antibiotic resistant extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing bacteria pose a challenge to the effective treatment of wound and skin infections

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2017
INTRODCUTION: the increasing incidence of antibiotic resistant bacteria is a concern both to the clinicians and the patients due to obvious consequences such as treatment failures, prolonged patientsstay in hospital and nosocomial infections.
