Shigellaspp. with Reduced Azithromycin Susceptibility, Quebec, Canada, 2012–2013

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
During 2012-2013 in Montreal, Canada, 4 locally acquired Shigella spp. pulse types with the mph(A) gene and reduced susceptibility to azithromycin were identified from 9 men who have sex with men, 7 of whom were HIV infected. Counseling about prevention of enteric sexually transmitted infections might help slow transmission of these organisms.

EVALUATION OF PLASMID-MEDIATED QUINOLONE RESISTANCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE QNR GENES IN CLINICAL ISOLATES OF SHIGELLA SPP. IN BAGHDAD

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016
Background:Although quinolone resistance results mostly from chromosomal mutations in Enterobacteriaceae, it may also be mediated by plasmid-encoded qnr determinants. Shigella harboring the novel qnr plasmid-mediated mechanism of quinolone resistance has

Spa47 is an oligomerization-activated type three secretion system (T3SS) ATPase from \u3cem\u3eShigella flexneri\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2016
Gram-negative pathogens often use conserved type three secretion systems (T3SS) for virulence. The Shigella type three secretion apparatus (T3SA) penetrates the host cell membrane and provides a unidirectional conduit for injection of effectors into host

Beyond Rotavirus: Persistence of Norovirus, Adenovirus, and Astrovirus in Paediatric Gastroenteritis in the Republic of Congo After Vaccine Introduction

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the introduction of rotavirus vaccines, gastroenteritis remains a major cause of paediatric morbidity and mortality in the Republic of Congo. This study investigated the prevalence and genetic diversity of non‐rotavirus enteric viruses including norovirus (NoV), adenovirus (AdV), and astrovirus (AstV) ten years after the introduction ...

Microbial Profiles of Hands, Foods, Easy Contact Surfaces and Food Contact Surfaces: A Case Study of a University Campus [PDF]

, 2013
Human hands usually harbour microbes both as part of body normal flora as well as transient microbes acquired from the environment. One common way by which transient organisms of hand are picked up is by contact with food and surfaces.

Sensory, proximate, and microbiological quality evaluation of five commercially important native and imported dry fish in Bangladesh

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 109-120, April 2026.
Abstract Background Dried fish is a popular protein‐rich food in Bangladesh, yet its safety and quality vary based on its origin, processing, and storage conditions. This study evaluated the sensory, proximate, and microbiological qualities of five commercially important dry fish available in Bangladeshi markets, including both native (Bangladesh) and ...

A Pilot Study on the Prevalence and Characterization of Multidrug‐Resistant Gram‐Negative Bacteria in Chicken and Pork Meat Around Kathmandu District, Nepal

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study investigated multidrug resistance in Gram‐negative bacteria from chicken and pork meat in Kathmandu, isolating 136 strains from 13 samples. Nearly half were multidrug resistant, highlighting contaminated meat as a potential route for zoonotic transmission and the need for antimicrobial resistance monitoring in Nepal.
