Multiresistant bacterial clones responsible for resistance are a combination of a 'fit' bacterial clone with a favourable combination of evolved resistance genes; examples include Staphylococcus aureus , Streptococcus pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii . The use of molecular genotyping techniques such as...
several hundred thousand deaths yearly can be attributed to infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The major driver for the development ofantibioticresistance is considered to be the use, misuse and overuse of antibiotics in humans and animals. Nonantibiotic compounds...
This is believed to have contributed to a situation where "some types of bacteria that cause serious infections in humans have already developed resistance to most or all of the available treatments and there are very few promising options in the research pipeline," WHO said. The UN health agen...
See how the use of existing rapid diagnostics and the development of new rapid diagnostics are critical components of the global strategy to combat antibiotic resistance.
Antibiotic resistance is a global health challenge, involving the transfer of bacteria and genes between humans, animals and the environment. Although multiple barriers restrict the flow of both bacteria and genes, pathogens recurrently acquire new resistance factors from other species, thereby reducing ...
The ARGs were related to tetracyclines, quinolones, β-lactam, and aminoglycosides, in accordance with the antibiotics widely used in the clinic for humans or animals. The emergence, prevalence, and differences in resistance genes in the intestines of yaks, beef, and dairy cattle may be caused ...
Evidence showed that bits of DNA containing genes that encode drug resistance crossed from animals to humans. The report's authors urged that precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of such transfers especially in farm workers.关键词: Antibiotics 抗生素类 ...
Over time, the study of antibiotic resistance has grown from focusing on single pathogenic organisms in axenic culture to studying antibiotic resistance in pathogenic, commensal and environmental bacteria at the level of microbial communities. As the study of antibiotic resistance advances, it is ...
The spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) poses a substantial threat to human health. Phage-mediated transduction could exacerbate ARG transmission. While several case studies exist, it is yet unclear to what extent phages encode and mobilize ARGs
