Local outbreak of Clostridioides difficile PCR-Ribotype 018 investigated by multi locus variable number tandem repeat analysis, whole genome multi locus sequence typing and core genome single nucleotide polymorphism typing

, 2019
International audienceThe prevalence of Clostridioides difficile PCR-ribotype (RT) 018 is low in Europe but variations are observed across countries. We report here the first RT 018-related outbreak in France that took place in 4 geriatric units (GU) in ...

Genomic analyses of Neisseria gonorrhoeae reveal an association of the gonococcal genetic island with antimicrobial resistance [PDF]

, 2016
SummaryObjectivesAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) threatens our ability to treat the sexually transmitted bacterial infection gonorrhoea. The increasing availability of whole genome sequence (WGS) data from Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates, however, provides

New Insights into the Diversity of the Genus Faecalibacterium

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Faecalibacterium prausnitzii is a commensal bacterium, ubiquitous in the gastrointestinal tracts of animals and humans. This species is a functionally important member of the microbiota and studies suggest it has an impact on the physiology and health of

Clonal expansion of Tn1546-like transposon-carrying vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, a nationwide study in Taiwan, 2004-2018

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objectives: The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) has increased significantly in Taiwan. We investigated the molecular epidemiology of clinical VREfm isolates to increase our understanding on their spread and changes in ...

Development and Implementation of Whole Genome Sequencing-Based Typing Schemes for Clostridioides difficile

Frontiers in Public Health, 2019
Clostridioides difficile is an important nosocomial pathogen increasingly observed in the community and in different non-human reservoirs. The epidemiology and transmissibility of C. difficile has been studied using a variety of typing methods, including

Draft genome sequence of a co-harbouring blaNDM-5 and mcr-1.1 Escherichia coli phylogroup A isolate associated with patient colonisation in Ireland

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objectives: While Escherichia coli phylogroup-A is typically associated with commensal strains, some isolates can harbour virulence and exhibit multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotypes.
