Cases of antibiotic-resistant () infections are becoming increasingly frequent and represent a major threat to our ability to treat cancer patients. The emergence of antimicrobial resistance threatens the treatment of infections. In this study, the antimicrobial profiles, virulent genes, and the frequency of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) gene carriage in fecal isolates from cancer patients at the Laquintinie Hospital in Douala (Cameroon) were determined.

Background: Otitis media is among the leading causes of illnesses responsible for causing hearing problems and adding significant costs to the public health system. Bacteria are the most common causative agents for otitis media. Currently, there is little information on the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of pathogenic bacterial isolates from patients with otitis media in Ethiopia.

From 1 January to 31 December 2023, fifty-seven institutions across Australia participated in the Australian Surveillance Outcome Program (ASSOP). The aim of ASSOP 2023 was to determine the proportion of bacteraemia (SAB) isolates in Australia that were antimicrobial resistant, with particular emphasis on methicillin resistance, and to characterise the methicillin-resistant (MRSA) molecular epidemiology. A total of 3,422 SAB episodes were reported, of which 77.

Antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) and virulence genes (VGs) have been widely reported in Salmonella which are major foodborne pathogens from poultry. This study assessed the replicon typing and conjugative ability of plasmids from poultry-derived Salmonella as well as ARGs and VGs carried by these plasmids using an in silico approach. Both PlasmidFinder 2.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined the presence of antibiotic residues in milk from five farms in Keraniganj, Dhaka, focusing on commonly used antibiotics like oxytetracycline and fluoroquinolones.
- Using a reliable RP-HPLC method, the study found that oxytetracycline was present in 90% of milk samples, with levofloxacin (66%), enrofloxacin (64%), and ciprofloxacin (62%) also detected.
- While 30% of oxytetracycline-positive samples exceeded the maximum residue limits (MRL), no samples exceeded the MRL for the other antibiotics, indicating low human health risks, though children might be more vulnerable to prolonged
