In vitro Antimicrobial Activity of Robenidine, Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid and Polymyxin B Nonapeptide Against Important Human and Veterinary Pathogens

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The emergence and global spread of antimicrobial resistance among bacterial pathogens demand alternative strategies to treat life-threatening infections. Combination drugs and repurposing of old compounds with known safety profiles that are not currently

The genome sequence of Barbarea vulgaris facilitates the study of ecological biochemistry [PDF]

, 2017
peer-reviewedThe genus Barbarea has emerged as a model for evolution and ecology of plant defense compounds, due to its unusual glucosinolate profile and production of saponins, unique to the Brassicaceae. One species, B.

Current Knowledge on Listeria monocytogenes Biofilms in Food-Related Environments: Incidence, Resistance to Biocides, Ecology and Biocontrol

Foods, 2018
Although many efforts have been made to control Listeria monocytogenes in the food industry, growing pervasiveness amongst the population over the last decades has made this bacterium considered to be one of the most hazardous foodborne pathogens.

Impact of the new membrane-targeting lipoglycopeptide antibiotic MCC5145 on the treatment of bacteremic pneumococcal pneumonia in mice

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Bacteremic Streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia is one of the most severe forms of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and with particularly high case-fatality rates among the elderly and individuals with comorbidities, exacerbated by rising antibiotic ...

Ecology determines how low antibiotic concentration impacts community composition and horizontal transfer of resistance genes

Communications Biology, 2018
Low concentrations of antibiotics have numerous effects on bacteria. However, it is unknown whether ecological factors such as trophic interactions and spatial structuring influence the effects of low concentrations of antibiotics on multispecies ...

Phenotypic and Genotypic Analysis of Antimicrobial Resistance in Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae Isolated from Pigs with Enzootic Pneumonia in Australia

Pathogens
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, an important cause of enzootic pneumonia in pigs in many countries, has recently been shown to exhibit reduced susceptibility to several antimicrobial classes.

Implications of indoor microbial ecology and evolution on antibiotic resistance

Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, 2019
The indoor environment is an important source of microbial exposures for its human occupants. While we naturally want to favor positive health outcomes, built environment design and operation may counter-intuitively favor negative health outcomes ...

An antiplasmid system drives antibiotic resistance gene integration in carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli lineages

Nature Communications
Plasmids carrying antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) are the main mechanism of resistance dissemination in Enterobacterales. However, the fitness-resistance trade-off may result in their elimination.

Draft genome sequence of a co-harbouring blaNDM-5 and mcr-1.1 Escherichia coli phylogroup A isolate associated with patient colonisation in Ireland

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objectives: While Escherichia coli phylogroup-A is typically associated with commensal strains, some isolates can harbour virulence and exhibit multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotypes.
