Seasonal and spatial variability of antibiotic resistance genes and Class I integrons in the rivers of the Mekong delta, Vietnam

Pierre Rossi, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Emmanuelle Rohrbach

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 ...

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing by measuring bacterial oxygen consumption on an integrated platform

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Yang Liu

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 ...

Revealing Antibiotic Tolerance of the Mycobacterium smegmatis Xanthine/Uracil Permease Mutant Using Microfluidics and Single-Cell Analysis

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Meltem Elitas

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 ...

Nanomotion Detection-Based Rapid Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing

Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba, Anton Malovichko

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 ...

Fast antimicrobial susceptibility testing onEscherichia coliby metabolic heat nanocalorimetry

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Yang Liu

Fast spreading of antimicrobial resistance is now considered a major global health threat. New technologies are required, enabling rapid diagnostics of bacterial infection combined with fast antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) for evaluating the eff ...

High amounts of antibiotic resistance genes and Class I integrons are disseminated in rivers of the Mekong delta (Viet Nam) from the effluents of intensive shrimp farms

Pierre Rossi, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Emmanuelle Rohrbach

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 ...

Resistance to disinfection agents: Adaptation of P. aeruginosa to sub inhibitory concentrations of quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs)

Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Leonardo Venturelli, Margaux Océane Voumard

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 ...

Antibody‐mediated crosslinking of gut bacteria hinders the spread of antibiotic resistance

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol, Loïc Marrec

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 ...
