Importance: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious public health threat. AMR bacteria and their resistance determinants in food can be transmitted to humans through the food chain and by direct contact and disseminate directly to the environment.
Objective: This study examined the AMR characteristics and transferable R plasmids in isolated from meat ducks raised in an open-house system.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to understand the genetic basis of resistance of five β-lactam resistant Vibrio anguillarum isolates obtained from the gut content of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scomberus), using whole genome sequencing and to characterize a novel β-lactamase (VAN-1) from these isolates.
Method: Antibiotic sensitivity pattern was determined using Sensititre™ plates and whole genome sequencing was carried out using Illumina MiSeq-based sequencing. The bla gene was synthesized and expressed in Escherichia coli Top10 cells.

Serum resistance is a poorly understood but common trait of some systemic disease pathogenic strains of bacteria. In this study, we analysed the role type III secretion system 2 (ETT2) of avian pathogenic (APEC) in serum resistance by bacteria survival number in serum culture, mRNA Seq and Tandem Mass Tag™ (TMT™) detection, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) extraction, and biofilm formation detection. We found that the ETT2 gene cluster deletion strain (ΔETT2) is more resistant to the killing effect of serum than wild-type APEC40.

Despite the sporadic detection of fluoroquinolone-resistant Shigella in Asia in the early 2000s and the subsequent global spread of ciprofloxacin-resistant (cipR) Shigella sonnei from 2010, fluoroquinolones remain the recommended therapy for shigellosis. The potential for cipR S. sonnei to develop resistance to alternative second-line drugs may further limit future treatment options.

Ethnopharmacological Importance: Capsicum and ginger are used widely in human diets and in folklore medicines. Chemically, gingerol is a relative of capsaicin and both classes of compounds are notable for their spiciness and characteristic pungent aroma. Previous studies have demonstrated that these compounds contain antimicrobial compounds with robust pharmacological importance.
