Urban ants as potential mechanical vectors of pathogenic and antibiotic‐resistant bacteria in a Brazilian hospital

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Nine ant taxa were identified in a Brazilian hospital, with Tapinoma melanocephalum and Dorymyrmex brunneus being the most abundant. Eighty‐five percent of collected ants yielded detectable bacterial growth, including clinically relevant genera such as Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Escherichia coli and Pluralibacter.

A Highly Efficient Fluorescent Turn-Off Nanosensor for Quantitative Detection of Teicoplanin Antibiotic from Humans, Food, and Water Based on the Electron Transfer between Imprinted Quantum Dots and the Five-Membered Cyclic Boronate Esters

Molecules
Teicoplanin has been banned in the veterinary field due to the drug resistance of antibiotics. However, teicoplanin residue from the antibiotic abuse of humans and animals poses a threat to people’s health.

Relationship between continuous infusion meropenem PK/PD target attainment and C‐reactive protein dynamics in onco‐haematologic patients with febrile neutropenia

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 10, Page 3646-3655, October 2026.
Aim Meropenem is a second‐line antimicrobial agent in the treatment of febrile neutropenia in onco‐haematological patients. A population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) analysis for assessing the relationship between meropenem exposure and C‐reactive protein (C‐RP) over time was conducted.

The impact of glycopeptide- and methicillin- resistance on "Staphylococcus aureus" and its virulence in localized and systemic infections [PDF]

, 2007
Adaptation of bacteria to their environment is a necessity to keep their fitness and survival under limiting conditions. In chapter I of this work we demonstrated that adaptation of glycopeptide-resistant S.

Discovery and Biosynthesis of the Novel Glycotetrapeptide Antibiotic Biffamycin A

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 26, 22 June 2026.
Genetic de‐regulation of a silent biosynthetic pathway allowed isolation and characterisation of a novel glycopeptide antibiotic named biffamycin A, which harbours unprecedented 5‐chloro‐4‐methoxy tryptophan and 3R‐hydroxy(α‐D‐mannoysl)‐D‐lysine moieties and is bioactive against MRSA and VRSA.

Elucidation of Teicoplanin Interactions with Drug Targets Related to COVID-19

Antibiotics, 2021
Teicoplanin is a glycopeptide antibiotic effective against several bacterial infections, has exhibited promising therapeutic efficiency against COVID-19 in vitro, and the rationale for its use in COVID-19 is yet to be recognized.

Genetic Diversity and Epidemiological Overlap of Staphylococcus aureus at the Animal–Food–Environment–Human Interface Within a One Health Framework

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Integrating farm‐to‐fork and clinical surveillance, this study reveals distinct SCCmec distributions alongside shared spa types across human, animal, and food interfaces. The results of genetic diversity and epidemiological overlap underscore the critical need for coordinated One Health surveillance to monitor multi‐sectoral Staphylococcus aureus ...

Antimicrobial Resistance in Nontyphoidal Salmonella and Clinically Relevant Enterococcus From Faecal Samples of Conservation‐Priority Captive Ungulates in a United Arab Emirates Urban Zoo: A Cross‐Sectional Baseline Study

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Targeted faecal surveillance of conservation‐priority captive ungulates identified multidrug‐resistant nontyphoidal Salmonella and clinically relevant Enterococcus in a UAE urban zoo. These findings provide cross‐sectional baseline evidence supporting cautious integration of zoo‐based monitoring into One Health antimicrobial resistance surveillance ...

Mycobacterium vaccae Adaptation to Disinfectants and Hand Sanitisers, and Evaluation of Cross-Tolerance with Antimicrobials

Antibiotics, 2020
Mycobacterium vaccae is being considered as an adjuvant to antituberculosis therapy, tested for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, and as an anti-depressive agent. This bacterium is ubiquitous in the environment and the widespread use of disinfectants
