Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the link between the CRISPR-Cas system and antibiotic resistance in avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) collected from poultry markets in Lahore, emphasizing the need for alternatives to antibiotics due to rising resistance levels.
- - Researchers confirmed the presence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) APEC strains, finding that all isolates were resistant to nalidixic acid, with significant resistance also noted against chloramphenicol and streptomycin.
- - Zinc Oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) were effective in inhibiting the growth of these resistant strains, suggesting they could be a viable alternative to traditional antibiotics in tackling antimicrobial resistance.
is one of the major pathogens responsible for causing food poisoning worldwide. The emergence of antibiotic resistance in this bacterium is influenced by various factors. Among them, bacterial acquired defense systems described as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-cas system might be involved in antibiotic resistance development in bacteria.

Study Period: March 2015 to November 2016.
Methods/procedure Details: Ninety two wounds in 34 patients reporting within 5days of less than 40% burn surface area were included.
