Article Synopsis
  • * Raman spectroscopy (RS) is gaining attention for its cost-effectiveness and non-invasive nature, but challenges like low signal intensity and poor reproducibility still exist.
  • * The study utilized surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combined with machine learning, achieving high accuracy in identifying 30 bacterial species, highlighting SERS's potential for practical applications in clinical laboratories.

Objectives: We aimed to report virulence-associated genes and molecular characteristics of non-O1/non-O139 Vibrio cholerae isolated from hepatitis B cirrhosis patients in China.

Methods: Patient clinical data including course of disease, laboratory tests, antibiotic treatment and outcomes were collected. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed and virulence-associated genes were detected by PCR.

Bacteria can survive fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs) treatment by becoming resistant through a genetic change-mutation or gene acquisition. The SOS response is widespread among bacteria and exhibits considerable variation in its composition and regulation, which is repressed by LexA protein and derepressed by RecA protein. Here, we take a comprehensive review of the SOS gene network and its regulation on the fluoroquinolone resistance.
