In-depth resistome analysis by targeted metagenomics [PDF]
ABSTRACTWe developed ResCap, a targeted sequence capture platform based on SeqCapEZ technology, to analyse resistomes and other genes related to antimicrobial resistance (heavy metals, biocides and plasmids). ResCap includes probes for 8,667 canonical resistance genes (7,963 antibiotic resistance genes and 704 genes conferring resistance to metals or ...

Phylogeny, Resistome, and Virulome of Escherichia coli Causing Biliary Tract Infections [PDF]
Escherichia coli is the most frequent Gram-negative bacilli involved in intra-abdominal infections. However, despite high mortality rates associated with biliary tract infections due to E. coli, there is no study focusing on this pathogen. In this study,

Metagenomics analysis of the neonatal intestinal resistome
IntroductionThe intestinal microbiome forms a major reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Little is known about the neonatal intestinal resistome.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate the intestinal resistome and factors that influence the abundance of ARGs in a large cohort of neonates.MethodsShotgun metagenomics was used

Unique wastewater antibiotic resistome [PDF]
Antibiotic Resistance![Figure][1] Genes that confer antibiotic resistance to microbiota present in wastewater treatment plants, like this treatment lagoon, are specific to that community, suggesting there is little risk that they could be transferred to the human gut microbiome PHOTO: GEORG GERSTER/SCIENCE SOURCE Antibiotic resistance is currently ...

From the microbiome to the central nervous system, an update on the epidemiology and pathogenesis of bacterial meningitis in childhood [version 1; referees: 3 approved] [PDF]
In the past century, advances in antibiotics and vaccination have dramatically altered the incidence and clinical outcomes of bacterial meningitis. We review the shifting epidemiology of meningitis in children, including after the implementation of ...

Comprehensive genomic landscape of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus epidermidis
Staphylococcus epidermidis, a common commensal bacterium found on human skin, can cause infections in clinical settings, and the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) impedes the treatment of S. epidermidis infections.

Cefquinome shows a higher impact on the pig gut microbiome and resistome compared to ceftiofur
Cephalosporins are licensed for treatment of severe bacterial infections in different species. However, the effect of these antimicrobials on the fecal microbiome and potential spread of resistance-associated genes causes great concern.
