First experimentally characterised Proteus phage endolysins have distinct metal cofactor dependencies [PDF]

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
Proteus mirabilis is a Gram-negative uropathogenic bacterial species responsible for many catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). Due to the growing rates of antimicrobial resistance among CAUTI pathogens, novel antimicrobial solutions are

Phytochemical Composition and Antibacterial Activity of Medicinal Plants Against Bacterial Pathogens Isolated From Livestock Wound Infections [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
The graphical abstract visually summarizes the study's key findings: it lists the major bacterial pathogens isolated from livestock wounds (such as S. aureus and E. coli) and the medicinal plants tested (Withania somnifera, Achyranthes aspera. It highlights the phytochemicals (alkaloids, flavonoids, etc.) present in the plant extracts and shows that ...

Characterization of genus proteus isolated from various clinical specimens and detection of extended-spectrum β-Lactamase production

CHRISMED Journal of Health and Research, 2023
Background: Among Gram-negative bacteria, the presence of beta-lactamases is a defined modality of resistance to antibiotics of the beta-lactam group. Proteus species also has been showing various degrees of resistance to these groups of antibiotics and
