A study of biochemical properties of 176 strains of coprocultures isolated from the patients and persons who sustained various acute enteric diseases, and also from contacts and persons examined for prophylaxis showed that they corresponded to the taxonomic definition of the Citrobacter and Hafnia genus. In connection with the similarity by biochemical properties between bacteria of Citrobacter and Salmonella genus and bacteria of Hafnia and Shigella genus it is of expedience in their identification and differentiation carried out in bacteriological laboratories in the diagnosis of enteric infections to use several biochemical tests.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) considered as global crisis facing poultry industry. Migratory birds play very important role in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistant pathogen during their fly way specially to poultry farms. Therefore, 750 samples from migratory birds and 300 samples from broiler chicken farms and its environment were collected during the winter seasons of five years (2019 to 2023).

The carbapenem-resistant (CRE) pose a pressing public health concern. Here, we investigated the frequency of CRE bacteria, carbapenemase-encoding genes, and the molecular epidemiology of carbapenemase-resistant in wastewater resources and healthy carriers in Iran. Out of 617 bacteria, 24% were carbapenem-resistant.

Bisphenol S (BPS), a typical endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC), can cause hepatopancreas damage and intestinal flora disturbance. Comprehensive studies on the mechanisms of acute toxicity in crustaceans are lacking. In this study, 16S rRNA and liquid chromatography were used to investigate intestinal microbiota and metabolites of freshwater crayfish (Procambarus clarkii).
