Spread of the blaOXA-48/IncL Plasmid within and between Dogs in City Parks, France
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 The blaOXA-48/IncL plasmid is increasingly reported in dogs, even in the absence of carbapenem use in animals. In this study, we witnessed the spread of this plasmid within and between dogs sharing the same relaxing area.

Alternatives to Fight Vancomycin-Resistant Staphylococci and Enterococci
Antibiotics, 2021 Gram positive pathogens are a significant cause of healthcare-associated infections, with Staphylococci and Enterococci being the most prevalent ones. Vancomycin, a last resort glycopeptide, is used to fight these bacteria but the emergence of resistance

Does virulence assessment of Vibrio anguillarum using sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) larvae correspond with genotypic and phenotypic characterization? [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Vibriosis is one of the most ubiquitous fish diseases caused by bacteria belonging to the genus Vibrio such as Vibrio (Listonella) anguillarum. Despite a lot of research efforts, the virulence factors and mechanism of V. anguillarum are still

Clonal Origin, Virulence Factors, and Virulence [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 2000 The recent report from Picard et al. regarding extraintestinal Escherichia coli infections provides new insights into the relationships between clonal origin, virulence factor repertoire, and virulence (1). That clonal origin was only secondarily associated with virulence in this study was suggested by the finding that although mouse lethality was more

Alternative Approaches for the Management of Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) represent a growing public health problem. The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria is a complication due to the difficulties in distinguishing between infection and colonization in DFU.

Virulence of enterococci [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 1994 Enterococci are commensal organisms well suited to survival in intestinal and vaginal tracts and the oral cavity. However, as for most bacteria described as causing human disease, enterococci also possess properties that can be ascribed roles in pathogenesis.

Scientific Reports, 2021 In S. aureus biofilms, bacteria are embedded in a matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and are highly tolerant to antimicrobial drugs. We thus sought to identify non-antibiotic substances with broad-spectrum activity able to destroy the EPS
