Detection of the bla(VIM-12) gene within the originally described Inh12 integron in a clinical isolate of Enterobacter cloacae is reported for the first time worldwide. Integron Inh12 was carried on a conjugative plasmid of approximately 85 kb which also conferred resistance to aztreonam, likely due to AmpC production.

Water quality testing does not recognise antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and is often limited to indicators of faecal contamination Escherichia coli and Enterococcus species. In Europe, data on AMR in drinking water is scarce. In Ireland, as in many countries, household drinking water is supplied via mains or via private wells or water schemes.

Background: The health and well-being of refugees are critically compromised by harsh living conditions, which foster the emergence of infectious diseases and the misuse of antimicrobial agents. This multicentre cross-sectional community-based study investigated the prevalence of urine carriage of bacteria and the associated antimicrobial resistance patterns among Syrian refugees living in makeshift camps in Lebanon, an East Mediterranean country.
Methods: We used multivariable logistic regression models to identify the risk factors associated with bacteriuria in this vulnerable population.
Efficacy of molecularly diversified phosphorus-solubilizing rhizobacterial isolates in phytostimulation, antimicrobial attributes and phosphorus-transporter genes mediated plant growth performance in maize (Zea mays L.).

This study evaluated a dual management approach to enhance plant-growth by improving soil fertility, reducing pathogenic stress using PGPR that affect phosphorus-transporter (pht) genes. Among 213 maize rhizobacterial isolates, 40 demonstrated the ability to solubilize tri-calcium phosphate, potassium, zinc, and silicon, showing various PGP traits. Nine of these isolates exhibited significant antagonistic activity against the plant pathogens Colletotrichum chlorophyti and Xanthomonas axonopodis.

Objective: Patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) complicated by carbapenem-resistant (CRE) infection often have a higher mortality rate. However, little investigation on the risk factor analysis has been published for the AP complicated by CRE. Therefore, this study conducted a retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics, risk factors, and molecular epidemiological features associated with CRE infection in patients with AP.

Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) develops from complex interactions among environmental, host and pathogenic factors. This study aimed to phenotypically identify isolated from cattle with BRD and assess antimicrobial susceptibility and determining the molecular phylogeny of local strains. Between November 2023 and March 2024, nasal swabs were collected from 93 cattle with BRD, before culturing for phenotypic analysis, and performing the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for molecular characterisation.
