Effect of Zinc Oxide and Copper Sulfate on Antibiotic Resistance Plasmid Transfer in Escherichia coli

Microorganisms, 2023
Heavy metals such as zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) may be associated with antibiotic resistance dissemination. Our aim was to investigate whether sub-lethal dosage of Zn and Cu may enhance plasmid transfer and subsequently resistance genes dissemination ...

Coexistence of Two blaNDM–5 Genes Carried on IncX3 and IncFII Plasmids in an Escherichia coli Isolate Revealed by Illumina and Nanopore Sequencing

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae poses a significant threat to public health worldwide. Here, we reported a multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli strain with two different blaNDM–5-carrying plasmids from China.

İnsanlardan ve hayvanlardan i̇zole edilen blandm-5 üreten karbapenem dirençli escherichia coli kökenlerinin plazmidlerı üstünde bulunan direnç gen tanımlayıcılarının i̇n silico analizi [PDF]

, 2021
Due to their ability to resist endpoint antimicrobials such as carbapenem, it is very important to detect and monitor multi-drug resistant Gram negative strains with plasmids containing genes such as blaNDM-5 by new molecular methods. This study aimed to

Evolutionary Origins and Virulence Determinants of ST25 Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae in Swine: Genomic Insights and Functional Validation

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The global spread of multidrug‐resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR‐HvKp), among which carbapenem‐resistant strains are of major concern, poses a severe threat to public health due to its high mortality rate and extremely limited treatment options.

Understanding the Association of Plasmid Incompatibility Groups With Variable Antimicrobial Resistance Genotypes in Bacteria

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
Multi‐replicon plasmids, particularly those belonging to the IncF, IncI, and IncH families, act as major vectors of antimicrobial resistance genes. Although no clear association was found between incompatibility groups and specific antibiotic classes, plasmids with more replicons exhibited higher resistance potential, highlighting their role in AMR ...

A Monitoring Method to Evaluate the Accumulation of Antimicrobial‐Resistance Genes in Gram‐Negative Bacteria Distributed in Environmental Water

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
There is less monitoring for antimicrobial‐resistance bacteria (AMRB) spread in the environment, probably due to costs. This study proposes a cost‐effective monitoring method based on isolating AMRB strains. This method enables us to understand the nature of environmental AMRB strains and assess their risk to humans and animals.

Surface water as a source of rare Salmonella enterica serovars in semiarid northeastern Brazil

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 1996-2013, November/December 2025.
Abstract Salmonella enterica remains a major foodborne pathogen globally but little attention has been paid to infrequent serovars in environmental settings. We report the occurrence of 30 rare S. enterica serovars isolated from environmental water sources between 2021 and 2022 in semiarid northeastern Brazil.
