This study aimed to assess the β-lactamase- and efflux pump-mediated antibiotic resistance in Typhimurium (WT-ST), ciprofloxacin-induced antibiotic-resistant . Typhimurium (CI-ST), and clinically-acquired antibiotic-resistant . Typhimurium (CA-ST). The β-lactamase activities were significantly increased up to 63 μmol/min/mL in CA-ST and 24 μmol/min/mL in CI-ST when compared to WT-ST (13 μmol/min/mL). The highest efflux pump activity was observed in CI-ST and CA-ST, showing more than 45%. The antibiotic susceptibilities of WT-ST, CI-ST, and CA-ST were increased in the presence of β-lactamase and efflux pump inhibitors. CA-ST showed the highest activity in AcrD, MdtABC, EmrAB, MdtK, and MacAB efflux pumps. The repressed were responsible for the decreased susceptibility of CA-ST to ampicillin (MIC > 512 μg/mL). This study would provide useful information for better understating of the development of multidrug resistance in association with β-lactamase and efflux pump activities and designing new antibiotic chemotherapy in combination with inhibitors.

Introduction The antimicrobial resistance of is variable and is influenced by both geographic location and regional antibiotic use. The overuse of antibiotics, especially in hospitalised patients, suppresses the growth and persistence of drug-resistant bacteria. This study aimed to detect the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant and the genes responsible for the resistance.

The increasing antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, responsible for both community-acquired and hospital-acquired infections, is of global significance. The primary mechanisms contributing to resistance development in P.aeruginosa include the increased activity of efflux pumps, decreased permeability of outer membrane porins and the production of carbapenemases.

Bacterial resistance is a major public health challenge. In Gram-negative bacteria, the synergy between multidrug efflux pumps and outer membrane impermeability determines the intracellular concentration of antibiotics. Consequently, it also dictates antibiotic activity on their respective targets.

The rapid spread of antimicrobial resistance poses a critical threat to global health and the environment. Antimicrobial nanomaterials, including silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), are being explored as innovative solutions; however, the emergence of nanoresistance challenges their effectiveness. Understanding resistance mechanisms is essential for developing antievolutionary strategies.

Introduction: The persistence of in the contaminated environment is sustained by tolerance to biocides and ability to growth as biofilm. The aim of the study was to analyze the susceptibility of biofilms to chlorhexidine (CHX) and benzalkonium (BZK) biocides and the ability of natural monomeric stilbenoid resveratrol (RV) to modulate the phenomenon.
Methods: Biofilm formation and preformed biofilm were tested by Crystal violet and tetrazolium salt reduction assay, respectively.
