The aim of this prospective study was to explore the factors on dairy farms that favour the selection of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the digestive E. coli strains of young calves and to assess whether the resistance levels and selection pressure were the same for males and females. The ...
The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a public health hazard, reducing the ability to prevent and treat commonplace infections [1,2]. The contribution of antibiotics to the development and spread of AMR has been extensively studied [1,3]. However, other chemical compounds have been link...
Antimicrobial resistanceCationic Host Defense Peptides (HDPs) are endowed with a broad variety of activities, including direct antimicrobial properties and modulatory roles in the innate immune response. Even if it has been widely demonstrated that bacterial membrane represents the main target of peptide...
Yuanxue Yang1, Hong Li1, Xin Wang1, Baojun Yang2, Jianhua Zhang1, Chunrui Li1, Neil S. Millar3 & Zewen Liu1 Insecticide resistance can arise from a variety of mechanisms, including changes to the target site, but is often associated with substantial fitness costs to...
This misuse can lead to antibiotic resistance, also known as antimicrobial resistance(AMR), currently one of the central issues facing the public health system. While the process for antibiotic resistance occurs naturally through the process of adaptation, the mismanagement of antibiotic resources has ...

Introduction Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major health threat, recently declared a crisis by the WHO, and recognized as one of the top 10 threats to global health. One of the strategies to curb AMR is interventional education to raise awareness. Therefore, this study evaluated the impact...

From this experience, we formulated the following objectives for this investigation: (1) to explore the possibility of exceeding the structural and sequential space of natural proteins by designing ‘fully de...
River microbial communities regularly act as the first barrier of defense against the spread of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) that enter environmental microbiomes through wastewater. However, how the invasion dynamics of wastewater-borne ARGs into river biofilm communities will shift due to climat...
