Lack of wastewater treatment in a small town drives the spread of ESBL‐producing Escherichia coli in irrigation waters

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 1116-1126, November/December 2024.
ABSTRACT Antibiotic resistance (ABR) is a critical and growing global challenge, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Ecuador has made great progress in connecting households to piped water supplies; however, the collection and treatment of domestic wastewater has lagged.

Comparison of the microbiological characteristics and virulence factors of ST131 and non-ST131 clones among extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Escherichia coli causing bacteremia

open access: yesDiagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2016
We evaluated the molecular epidemiology and microbiological characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) isolates that cause bacteremia in Korean hospitals, focusing especially on ST131. Our data suggest that ST131 isolates possessed more virulence traits and showed more multidrug resistance patterns than non ...

Examining key capitals contributing to students' science‐related career expectations and their relationship patterns: A machine learning approach

open access: yesJournal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1975-2010, October 2024.
Abstract Through the lens of science capital, this research aims to detect the key factors and their main effects in identifying students with science‐related career expectations. A machine learning approach (i.e., random forest) was employed to analyze a dataset of 519,334 15‐year‐old students from the Programme for International Student Assessment ...

Escherichia coli-mediated impairment of ureteric contractility is uropathogenic E. coli specific. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Ureters are fundamental for keeping kidneys free from uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), but we have shown that 2 strains (J96 and 536) can subvert this role and reduce ureteric contractility. To determine whether this is (1) a widespread

Technical specifications for a EU‐wide baseline survey of antimicrobial resistance in bacteria from aquaculture animals

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract The European Commission requested scientific and technical assistance in the preparation of a EU‐wide baseline survey of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria from aquaculture animals. It is recommended that the survey would aim at estimating the occurrence of AMR in Aeromonas spp.

Genomic characterization of extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamase‐producing and carbapenem‐resistant Escherichia coli from urban wastewater in Australia

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2024.
This study investigates extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamase‐producing and carbapenem‐resistant Escherichia coli isolates from Sydney's wastewater. These isolates exhibit resistance to critical antibiotics and harbor novel resistance mechanisms. The findings highlight the importance of wastewater‐based surveillance in monitoring resistance beyond the ...

Whole genome sequencing reveals high clonal diversity of Escherichia coli isolated from patients in a tertiary care hospital in Moshi, Tanzania [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Limited information regarding the clonality of circulating E. coli strains in tertiary care hospitals in low and middle-income countries is available.

Identification of a novel DNA repair inhibitor using an in silico driven approach shows effective combinatorial activity with genotoxic agents against multidrug‐resistant Escherichia coli

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, April 2024.
Abstract Increasing antimicrobial drug resistance represents a global existential threat. Infection is a particular problem in immunocompromised individuals, such as patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy, due to the targeting of rapidly dividing cells by antineoplastic agents.
