Longitudinal Molecular Epidemiology and Genomic Surveillance of Carbapenem‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in the Gut of Healthy Individuals in China

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using 16,040 stool samples from healthy individuals across 30 Chinese provinces (2016–2024), we performed longitudinal genomic surveillance of carbapenem‑resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) colonizing the gut. We reveal rising community CRKP prevalence, especially in southern China, a shift from blaKPC‐2 to plasmid‑borne blaNDM‐5 on IncHI2/IncHI2A ...

Muddy Water Pneumonitis: An Emerging Occupational Lung Disease in Professional Divers

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Chronic exposure to sediment‐rich river water in a professional diver led to progressive necrotizing lung injury mimicking tuberculosis. Bronchoalveolar lavage revealed Acinetobacter, highlighting a rare occupational cause of cavitary pneumonitis.

Chemical Profile and Antibacterial Activity of Cymbopogon Citratus Leaf Essential Oil

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 29, 3 August 2026.
The essential oil of Cymbopogon citratus was chemically characterized by GC–MS and evaluated for antibacterial activity against clinically relevant Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria. Citral isomers (geranial and neral) were identified as the major constituents, and the oil exhibited selective bactericidal and bacteriostatic effects, supporting ...

Antimicrobial Resistance of Serratia marcescens Recovered From Aquatic Environments: A Review

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Serratia marcescens is a gram‐negative bacillus forming biofilms and showing multidrug resistance. Review (2019–2024) included 13 studies, 90 aquatic isolates. High resistance to β‐lactams, including carbapenems. Genes: blaOXA‐48, blaTEM‐1, aac(6′)‐Ic. Aquatic environments are reservoirs, requiring monitoring and control to prevent spread.

Occurrence and Distribution of Environmental Pseudomonas aeruginosa From Hospitals in Bangladesh Reveals Diverse Strain Families, Multidrug Resistance, and Biofilm Formation

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Environmental reservoirs in Bangladeshi hospitals harbor phylogenetically diverse, multidrug‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa with extensive biofilm‐forming capacity and class 1 integron‐associated resistance genes. These findings highlight hospital environments as persistent sources of antimicrobial resistance dissemination and underscore the need for

Rational Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of New Substituted Dihydropyrimidinones as Antibacterial Agents and β‐Lactamase Inhibitors

open access: yesChemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 108, Issue 2, August 2026.
Novel 1,6‐dihydropyrimidinones act as antibacterial agents and beta‐lactamase inhibitors. Compounds 3d, 3i, and 7b demonstrated enhanced beta‐lactamase inhibition relative to the standard reference, clavulanic acid, demonstrating significant potentiation effects to restore antibiotic efficacy and combat resistant bacterial strains. ABSTRACT A series of
