Does repeated exposure to hydrogen peroxide induce Candida auris resistance?
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control
September 2023
Division of Microbiology, Department of Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Porto, Al. Prof. Hernâni Monteiro, Porto, 4200 - 319, Portugal.
Background: To minimize environmental colonization by microorganisms that may persist and thrive in healthcare settings, thus reducing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), new insights over already known biocides are certainly of relevance. Although the efficacy of hydrogen peroxide (HO) against the emergent yeast Candida auris is moderately documented, concerns over the potential induction of resistance after repeated exposure do persist. The main objective of the present study was to evaluate the hypothetical induction of Candida auris resistance following 30 days of consecutive exposure to lethal and sublethal concentrations of HO.

Antimicrob Resist Infect Control
July 2020
1Central Unit for Infection Prevention and Control, Universitätsmedizin Greifswald, Walther-Rathenau-Str. 49A, Greifswald, 17475 Germany.
Background: The prevention of nosocomial infections requires participation from the patients themselves. In the past, however, patients have been apprehensive to point out hygiene-relevant behaviour to the personnel.In the project AHOI, the possibilities of active patient involvement in infection prevention are identified, tested and realized.

Antimicrob Resist Infect Control
July 2020
2Department of Medical Microbiology and Radboudumc Center for Infectious Diseases, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
Background: Antibiotic resistance is a major global public health threat. Antibiotic use can directly impact the antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) profile of the human intestinal microbiome and consequently the environment through shedding.
Methods: We determined the resistome of human feces, animal stools, human food and environmental (rain, well, and irrigative water) samples ( = 304) in 40 households within a community cohort and related the data to antibiotic consumption.
Potential of innovations in hygiene management - a managerial perspective.
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control
June 2020
1Department of Health Care Management, University of Greifswald, Friedrich-Loeffler-Str. 70, 17487 Greifswald, Germany.
Background: Assessment of the current situation is crucial before introducing innovative infection prevention measures. According to the literature, hospital managers should take on the role of "power promoters" in adopting infection prevention measures due to their position and decision-making authority. However, there is no empirical evidence for whether or not this assumption is valid.
