Resistance to last-resort antibiotics is a global threat to public health. Therefore, surveillance and monitoring systems for antimicrobial resistance should be established on a national and international scale. For the development of a One Health surveillance system, we collected exemplary data on carbapenem and colistin-resistant bacterial isolates from human, animal, food, and environmental sources.

We present millisecond quantitative serial X-ray crystallography at 1.7 Å resolution demonstrating precise optical control of reversible population transfer from Trans-Cis and Cis-Trans photoisomerization of a reversibly switchable fluorescent protein, rsKiiro. Quantitative results from the analysis of electron density differences, extrapolated structure factors, and occupancy refinements are shown to correspond to optical measurements of photoinduced population transfer and have sensitivity to a few percent in concentration differences.

The use of pesticides is increasing steadily, and even though pesticides are essential for food security, they are known for having adverse effects on human health, and the environment. Further, as pesticides are often a reaction to pests, which are influenced by environmental conditions, the environment might influence the use of pesticides-when assuming, that the use is optimized, and adjusted to those conditions. Therefore, it would be helpful to know how environmental conditions influence the pesticide residue levels of fruits and vegetables.
