Allium‐Derived Compounds Against Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria: Antibacterial Activity and Synergistic Effects

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
This study evaluates four compounds derived from the genus Allium against 330 multidrug‐resistant bacteria. Propyl‐propane‐thiosulfonate (PTSO) exhibits the highest activity, particularly against Gram‐positive strains, while Gram‐negative bacteria are less affected.

Genomic Insights Into a Hospital‐Acquired High‐Risk Vancomycin‐Resistant Enterococcus faecium Outbreak in Guangdong, China

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
We characterized a dominant ST80 clone responsible for a vancomycin‐resistant Enterococcus faecium outbreak in Chinese hospitals, revealing its close genetic ties to global lineages. A novel PCR method was developed for targeted surveillance of this high‐risk strain. ABSTRACT A comprehensive molecular epidemiological study was conducted on a vancomycin‐

Vancomycin‐Resistant Enterococcus in Wild Animals: A Global Scoping Review

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vancomycin‐resistant enterococci in free‐ranging wild animals: A systematic scoping review. ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance is a global One Health concern, and vancomycin‐resistant Enterococcus (VRE) remains one of the clinically important resistant bacterial groups. Although VRE has been extensively studied in clinical and livestock settings, it has

Detection of vancomycin resistance in enterococcus species isolated from clinical samples and feces of colonized patients by phenotypic and genotypic methods

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2016
Background: The aim of this study was to find out the clinical correlation between the presence of vancomycin-resistant genes (van A and van B) and their expression as detected by phenotypic tests in colonized patients and in clinical isolates. Materials

Aortic Valve Endocarditis Caused by Streptococcus acidominimus Following Community‐Acquired Pneumonia in a Patient With Diabetes Mellitus: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Infective endocarditis due to Streptococcus acidominimus is exceedingly rare and poses diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. We present a case that highlights the clinical significance of this uncommon pathogen in a patient with diabetes mellitus who was initially presumed to have community‐acquired pneumonia.

Transmisssion Dynamics of Enterococcus spp. Throughout the Heliconius erato phyllis (Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae) Life Cycle

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Enterococcus spp. dominate the gut microbiota of Heliconius erato phyllis, transmitted horizontally via host plants (Passiflora suberosa) and persisting through development. Multidrug‐resistant strains were found in larvae and plants, suggesting environmental reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance. This study reveals key microbial transmission dynamics

A Survey of the Microbiome, Culturome and ARG Profile of a Cohort of Chronic Diabetic Foot Lesions

APMIS, Volume 134, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to analyse the microbiome of chronic infected diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) using parallel methods: traditional culture (the culturome), 16S rRNA gene sequencing (the microbiome) as well as the Antibiotic Resistance Gene (ARG) profile of isolated strains. Swab samples were collected in parallel from affected ulcers.
