Class D β-lactamases OXA-232 and OXA-48 hydrolyze penicillin, cephalosporins and carbapenems, limiting the pharmacological therapeutics in bacteraemia. OXA producer microorganisms are considered a great emergent threat, especially in nosocomial environments. To determine the resistance profile and genomic characterization of two isolates initially identified as potential carbapenemase-producer Klebsiella oxytoca in a third level hospital. Automated platform BD Phoenix-100 System was used to identify and to biochemically characterize both isolates. Furthermore, the resistance profile was determined through CLSI methods and the whole genome sequences were obtained using Next-Generation Sequencing. Resistance genes were analyzed, and the virtual fingerprinting was determined to corroborate the similarity with related bacteria. Both strains correspond to Raoultella ornithinolytica carrying OXA 232 and OXA-48 genes, confirming the class D β-lactamases assay results. Here, we present the genetic and phenotypic analysis of multidrug resistance R. ornithinolytica, representing the first report in Mexico.

Background: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales isolates are associated with significant mortality and have emerged as a major problem in healthcare settings worldwide.
Objective: Our aim was to investigate the epidemiological and genotypic characteristics of carbapenemase-positive Enterobacterales isolates from patients hospitalised in three hospitals in the city of Batna, Algeria.
Methods: Between 2016 and 2019, a total of 5,316 clinical isolates were obtained.

The utilization of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) holds great promise for the restoration of damaged terrestrial plant ecosystems. However, there is a significant knowledge gap regarding the application of PGPR in rehabilitating aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we conducted a mesocosm experiment to investigate the effects of Raoultella ornithinolytica F65, Pantoea cypripedii G84, Klebsiella variicola G85, Novosphingobium profundi G86, and Klebsiella pneumoniae I109 on eelgrass (Zostera marina L.

Article Synopsis
- A new strain of bacteria, Raoultella ornithinolytica YX-4, was found in pig farm wastewater and can effectively remove ammonium, nitrate, nitrite, and phosphorus.
- The strain exhibits pathways for heterotrophic nitrification, aerobic denitrification, and phosphorus accumulation, achieving removal rates of 99%, 97%, and 93% for ammonia and nitrate/nitrite, respectively, under optimal conditions.
- This study is the first to report on the denitrification capabilities of R. ornithinolytica and emphasizes the expression of key enzyme genes related to wastewater treatment efficiency.

Background: Emphysematous pyelonephritis is a rare and severe urinary tract infection that is potentially life-threatening and easily progresses to septic shock. In this report, we present a unique case of emphysematous pyelonephritis caused by Raoultella ornithinolytica.
Case Presentation: An 86-year-old man presented with severe back pain of 3 days' duration.
