Sewage and sewage-contaminated environments are the most prominent sources to isolate phages against Pseudomonas aeruginosa

BMC Microbiology, 2021
Background P. aeruginosa is the primary source of hospital-acquired infections. Unfortunately, antibiotic resistance is growing to precariously high levels, making the infections by this pathogen life-threatening and hard to cure.

Tertiary hospital sewage as reservoir of bacteria expressing MDR phenotype in Brazil [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
High doses of antibiotics used in hospitals can affect the microbial composition of sewers, selecting resistant bacteria. In this sense, we evaluated the antibiotic resistance profile and the multiresistant phenotype of bacteria isolated in sewage from a

Hospital sewage in Brazil: a reservoir of multidrug-resistant carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The One Health concept recognizes that human health is clearly linked to the health of animals and the environment. Infections caused by bacteria resistant to carbapenem antibiotics have become a major challenge in hospitals due to limited therapeutic ...

HT-ARGfinder: A Comprehensive Pipeline for Identifying Horizontally Transferred Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Directionality in Metagenomic Sequencing Data

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Antibiotic resistance is a continually rising threat to global health. A primary driver of the evolution of new strains of resistant pathogens is the horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).

Coexistence of tmexCD3-toprJ1b tigecycline resistance genes with two novel blaVIM-2-carrying and blaOXA-10-carrying transposons in a Pseudomononas asiatica plasmid

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionTigecycline and carbapenems are considered the last line of defense against microbial infections. The co-occurrence of resistance genes conferring resistance to both tigecycline and carbapenems in Pseudomononas asiatica was not investigated ...
