Role of Gram‐Negative Bacterial Infections in Acute‐On‐Chronic Liver Failure
Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a systemic disease characterised by an acute clinical deterioration of pre‐existing liver cirrhosis leading to multiple organ failure due to systemic inflammation. It may be triggered by the translocation of bacteria and bacterial compounds across the gut barrier.

Discovery and Biosynthesis of the Novel Glycotetrapeptide Antibiotic Biffamycin A
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 26, 22 June 2026.Genetic de‐regulation of a silent biosynthetic pathway allowed isolation and characterisation of a novel glycopeptide antibiotic named biffamycin A, which harbours unprecedented 5‐chloro‐4‐methoxy tryptophan and 3R‐hydroxy(α‐D‐mannoysl)‐D‐lysine moieties and is bioactive against MRSA and VRSA.

Cleaning Methods and Microbial Safety of Child Feeding Equipment: A Systematic Review
Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Microbial contamination of child feeding equipment (CFE) includes feeding bottles, teats, and breast pumps. This contamination is a recognized pathway for enteric pathogen exposure during early childhood, particularly during the complementary feeding period (6–24 months).

Nursing in Critical Care, Volume 31, Issue 4, July 2026.ABSTRACT Background Central venous catheters are essential in paediatric intensive care but are associated with catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) and skin complications. Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)‐impregnated dressings may reduce infection risk; however, concerns remain regarding their dermatological safety in vulnerable paediatric ...

Antibacterial Activity of Heteropolytungstates Against Proteus mirabilis
European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 18, 22 June 2026.We investigated the in vitro antibacterial activity of several heteropolytungstates against P. mirabilis, a drug‐resistant pathogen. All tested polyanions inhibited bacterial growth, with the Preyssler–Pope–Jeannin polyanion P5W30 exhibiting the highest activity (MIC = 0.78 mg/mL).

Optimisation of a Novel Class of DNA Gyrase Inhibitors to Improve Antibacterial Activity
ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.This article describes efforts to increase the antibacterial activity of a recently reported class of novel DNA gyrase inhibitors known as the isoquinoline sulphonamides by improving their uptake in bacterial cells. As antibiotic resistance continues to rise, the need for new antibacterials is clear.
