Rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (RAST) using disk diffusion (DD) from positive blood cultures (BC) can aid initiation of effective antimicrobial therapy. Rapid molecular blood culture identification panels (BCID) and microbiology laborator...
UNLABELLED: Antimicrobial resistance is an escalating global health crisis, underscoring the urgent need for timely and targeted therapies to ensure effective clinical treatment. We developed a machine learning model based on metagenomic next-generat...
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP), known for its high virulence and epidemic potential, has emerged as a significant global public health threat. Therefore, improving the identification of hvKP and enabling earlier and faster detection in th...

INTRODUCTION: Accurately assessing biofilm viability is essential for evaluating both biofilm formation and the efficacy of antibacterial treatments. Traditional SYTO9 and propidium iodide (PI) live/dead staining in biofilm viability assays often ace...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a promising approach to identify new antimicrobial compounds in diverse microbial species. Here we developed an AI-based, explainable deep learning model, EvoGradient, that predicts the potency of antimicrobial peptide...
BACKGROUND: Multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR-KP) infections pose a significant global healthcare challenge, particularly due to the high mortality risk associated with septic shock. This study aimed to develop and validate a machine lea...
Polymicrobial biofilm infections, especially associated with medical devices such as peripheral venous catheters, are challenging in clinical settings for treatment and management. In this study, we examined the mixed biofilm formed by Candida glabra...
