Discovery of a novel integron-borne aminoglycoside resistance gene present in clinical pathogens by screening environmental bacterial communities

Microbiome, 2020
Background New antibiotic resistance determinants are generally discovered too late, long after they have irreversibly emerged in pathogens and spread widely.

Genetic and phenotypic characterizations of IncX3 plasmids harboring bla NDM-5 and bla NDM-16b in Japan

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
The spread of the gene encoding the NDM-type carbapenemase, bla NDM, poses a serious threat to clinical practice and public health. This gene is usually carried by transferable plasmids, which facilitates its rapid spread among various species of ...

Effect of temperature on Escherichia coli bloodstream infection in a nationwide population-based study of incidence and resistance

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2022
Background The incidence of Escherichia coli bloodstream infections (BSI) is high and increasing. We aimed to describe the effect of season and temperature on the incidence of E. coli BSI and antibiotic-resistant E.

Model Systems of Human Intestinal Flora, to Set Acceptable Daily Intakes of Antimicrobial Residues [PDF]

, 2000
The veterinary use of antimicrobial drugs in food producing animals may result in residues in food, that might modify the consumer gut flora. This review compares three model systems that maintain a complex flora of human origin: (i) human flora ...

Effects of dietary Clostridium butyricum supplementation on growth performance, intestinal development, and immune response of weaned piglets challenged with lipopolysaccharide

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2018
Background Weanling pigs, with immature immune system and physiological function, usually experience post-weaning diarrhea. This study determined the effects of dietary Clostridium butyricum supplementation on growth performance, diarrhea, and immunity ...

Resistance in Superconductors [PDF]

, 2010
In this pedagogical review, we discuss how electrical resistance can arise in superconductors. Starting with the idea of the superconducting order parameter as a condensate wave function, we introduce vortices as topological excitations with quantized ...
