In view of the pressing need to identify new antibacterial agents able to combat multidrug-resistant bacteria, we investigated a series of fused selenazolinium derivatives (-) regarding their in vitro antimicrobial activities against 25 ESKAPE-pathog...

We evaluated the antimicrobial susceptibility of 623 Gram-negative organisms causing infection in patients with cancer in 52 United States hospitals (2013-2014) as part of the International Network for Optimal Resistance Monitoring (INFORM) program. ...
Multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDRPA) infections are major threats to healthcare-associated infection control and the intrinsic molecular mechanisms of MDRPA are also unclear. We examined 348 isolates of P. aeruginosa, including 188 MDRP...
The objectives were to evaluate the presence of vancomycin-resistant enterococci with acquired (VRE-a) and intrinsic (VRE-i) resistance mechanisms in fecal samples from different wild animals, and analyze their phenotypes and genotypes of antimicrobi...
UNLABELLED: is a multidrug-resistant pathogen, which poses a major challenge to clinical management due to its increasing resistance to common antibiotics, such as levofloxacin (LEV) and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (SXT), and poor clinical respons...
Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has become a serious global health concern due to its rising virulence and antibiotic resistance. As one of the leading members of ESKAPE pathogens, it plays a major role in a wide range of infections that cause ...
Escherichia coli recovered from dogs with clinical conditions such as urinary tract infections are often used to assess populations for resistance to critically important antimicrobials (CIAs). Despite the potential importance of such strains, the nu...

OBJECTIVES: The World Health Organization has identified Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) as significant public health threats owing to high antibiotic resistance. Traditional antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods,...
Can we understand and predict the evolutionary pathways by which bacteria acquire multi-drug resistance (MDR)? These questions have substantial potential impact in basic biology and in applied approaches to address the global health challenge of anti...
