Aquaculture activities are steadily expanding in Vietnam, covering an estimated 700,000 ha, with 89% of these culture ponds located in the Mekong Delta. Since 2009, large-scale bacterial epidemics have spread in response to this intensive cultivation. Anti ...

In the Mekong delta, intensive shrimp farming rely heavily on a wide panel of antibiotics (ABs) to prevent disease epidemics. Consequently, large amounts of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria are emerging, threatening adjacent aquatic habitats used for ir ...
Fast spreading antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an emerging major public health issue. New therapeutic and diagnostic paradigms must be implemented to counteract this evolution. In this respect, fast antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) plays an imp ...

The body is home to a diverse microbiota, mainly in the gut. Resistant bacteria are selected by antibiotic treatments, and once resistance becomes widespread in a population of hosts, antibiotics become useless. Here, we develop a multiscale model of the i ...
To reveal rare phenotypes in bacterial populations, conventional microbiology tools should be advanced to generate rapid, quantitative, accurate, and high-throughput data. The main drawbacks of widely used traditional methods for antibiotic studies include ...
Rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) could play a major role in fighting multidrug-resistant bacteria. Recently, it was discovered that all living organisms oscillate in the range of nanometers and that these oscillations, referred to as nanomoti ...
Cellular respiration is a fundamental feature of metabolic activity and oxygen consumption can be considered as a reliable indicator of bacterial aerobic respiration, including for facultative anaerobic bacteria like E. coli. Addressing the emerging global ...
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a Gram-negative, nonfermenting, environmental bacillus that is an important cause of nosocomial infections, primarily associated with the respiratory tract in the immunocompromised population. Aiming to understand the popula ...

Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) are among the most used disinfection agents in consumer products and in industrial applications. Because of their poor biodegradabil ity, after use, they will persist in technical and natural aquatic systems at sub - in ...
