Investigation of Plasmid-Mediated Quinolone Resistance in Escherichia coli Strains

open access: yes, 2012
Quinolones are widely used antimicrobial agents, particularly for the treatment of infections caused by gram-negative bacilli such as E.coli. As a consequence, quinolone resistance has been increasing among this species in recent years.

Genomic Detection of Multidrug‐Resistant H58 ST1 Salmonella Typhi in a South African Urban Waterway Reveals Epidemiological Links With Clinical Isolates

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Genomic analysis of four S. Typhi from a South African urban river uncovered two multidrug‐resistant H58 strains carrying qacEΔ1, revealing strong phylogenetic links to clinical isolates and underscoring urban rivers as potential transmission pathways. ABSTRACT Typhoid fever remains a major public health concern in South Africa.

First Report of blaCTX‐M‐15 in a Marine Thermotolerant Enterobacter Isolate From Bangladesh: Genomic Insights Into Halotolerance and Antimicrobial Resistance

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Marine‐derived Enterobacter kobei, exhibiting thermotolerance and salt tolerance, is ESBL‐producing and harbors AMR genes (blaCTX‐M‐15, qnrS1) and mobile genetic elements, indicating environmental spread of antimicrobial resistance. ABSTRACT Marine ecosystems are becoming important reservoirs for antimicrobial resistance (AMR). However, genomic data on

Metagenomic Characterisation of Antibiotic Resistance in Anaerobic Digesters and Their Implications for Environmental Health

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Anaerobic digester metagenomes revealed diverse resistance‐associated annotations and antibiotic target loci, highlighting their potential role in environmental AMR surveillance. The findings emphasise the need for cautious interpretation of resistome profiles and further host‐resolved analyses to determine the mobility and clinical relevance of ...

Mechanisms of Resistance to Quinolones and Epidemiological Significance of Salmonella spp.

open access: yesActa Veterinaria, 2016
Bacteria develop resistance to antimicrobial agents by a number of different mechanisms. The resistance to (fluoro)quinolones in Salmonella is of particular importance especially if therapy in humans is required.

Carriage of antimicrobial‐resistant E. coli in urban stray cats (Felis catus)

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 10, Page 681-688, October 2026.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Escherichia coli is a growing concern in both human and veterinary medicine, driven by the inappropriate use of antimicrobials. Companion animals may act as community reservoirs and sentinels for antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria due to their close contact with humans and other animals.

Conformational Snapshots of CydDC in a Native Lipid Bilayer Coupling Heme Transport to Antibiotic Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.
Phylogenetic and biochemical analyses of the heme transporter CydDC reveal its functional conservation throughout bacterial evolution and demonstrate its unique asymmetric allosteric mechanism. Furthermore, impairment of CydDC function directly affects bacterial antibiotic resistance and likely compromises antibiotic efficacy through drug efflux.
