MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.Retail meat–derived E. coli frequently harbored multidrug‑resistance phenotypes, diverse virulence determinants, and plasmid‑encoded resistance genes with high conjugative potential. Results indicate meat and poultry as underrecognized reservoirs facilitating dissemination of antimicrobial resistance and pathogenic lineages, with imported products ...

Intracellular Uropathogenic E. coli Exploits Host Rab35 for Iron Acquisition and Survival within Urinary Bladder Cells [PDF]
, 2015 Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) are common and morbid infections with limited therapeutic options. Previous studies have demonstrated that persistent intracellular infection of bladder epithelial cells ...

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 223-232, April 2026.ABSTRACT Resazurin is a cell viability phenoxazine dye widely employed for bacterial monitoring, as its colorimetric and fluorometric conversion reflects microbial metabolic activity. In this work, we demonstrate that graphene oxide (GO), a two‐dimensional nanomaterial with high surface reactivity, markedly accelerates the reduction of resazurin in the

The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2021 Introduction: Avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) and uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) are responsible for avian colibacillosis and human urinary tract infections, respectively. There are genetic similarities between the APEC and UPEC pathotypes, suggesting the APEC strains could be a potential reservoir of virulence and antimicrobial-resistance genes for the ...

Antimicrobial Adaptation in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2020 Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) make up the largest proportion of hospital acquired infections. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are a major causative agent of CAUTI partially due to the bacteria’s ability to form biofilms on the catheter surface in addition to their extensive array of virulence factors that facilitate ...

O-Antigen-Dependent Colicin Insensitivity of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2019 Escherichia coli infections can be a major health burden, especially with the organism becoming increasingly resistant to “last-resort” antibiotics such as carbapenems. Although colicins are potent narrow-spectrum antimicrobials with potential as future antibiotics, high levels of naturally occurring colicin insensitivity have ...

Molecular typing of uropathogenic E. coli strains by the ERIC-PCR method
Electronic Physician, 2016 Introduction: Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the most common cause of urinary infections in hospitals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ERIC-PCR method for molecular typing of uropathogenic E.
