Phenotypic detection of Metallo- and AmpC β-lactamases producing strains of P. aeruginosa in the state of Himachal Pradesh (India) [PDF]
Background: A prospective study was undertaken to detect metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates recovered from patients at Indira Gandhi Medical College, Shimla (H.P).

The graphical abstract outlines that samples from milk, faeces and soil were tested for Enterococcus avium using culture, PCR and genome sequencing.2. Overall, prevalence of E. avium was 56.3%, and 93.5% of isolates were multidrug‐resistant.3. Genomic analysis revealed six ARGs, 43–45 VFGs and 4–6 bacteriocins.4.

Old and New Beta-Lactamase Inhibitors: Molecular Structure, Mechanism of Action, and Clinical Use
The β-lactams have a central place in the antibacterial armamentarium, but the increasing resistance to these drugs, especially among Gram-negative bacteria, is becoming one of the major threats to public health worldwide.

This study reports the first clinical isolate of the monophasic variant of Salmonella typhimurium (serotype 1,4,[5],12:i:‐) ST34 harbouring a chromosomally integrated blaNDM‐5. The ~11 kb resistance region is flanked by two directly oriented IS26 elements, forming an IS26‐composite transposon.

Environmental species from theTelluria group as the putative origin of bifunctionalβ-lactamases
β-Lactamases comprise two structurally and evolutionarily well-defined groups: serine- (SBL) and metallo-β-lactamases (MBL). To date, clinically relevant β-lactamases are typically monofunctional DD-peptidases, containing a single active site cavity per ...

Phage therapy shows promising efficacy against MDR, XDR, and PDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections across different models and administration routes. Evidence highlights reduced mortality, bacterial clearance, and synergy with antibiotics, while emphasizing the need for standardized protocols and advanced delivery systems to support clinical ...

Microbiota profiling showed colonized critically ill patients had lower values of dominance/evenness (Simpson's index) and richness (Observed), reaching significantly lower values of information (mean difference in Shannon index = –1.18; 95% CI, –1.84 to –0.52; p < 0.001).

Functional dynamics of water in New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamase catalysis
Abstract Water plays a critical role in the hydrolysis of antibiotics by New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamases (NDMs). The reaction proceeds through a nucleophilic attack on the β‐lactam ring, followed by cleavage of the C–N bond and formation of an anionic nitrogen intermediate. This intermediate is then protonated by a water molecule diffusing from the bulk
