Background: A global problem of multi-drug resistance (MDR) among bacteria is the cause
of hundreds of thousands of deaths every year. In response to the significant increase of …

Multidrug resistance in Escherichia coli has become a worrying issue that is increasingly
observed in human but also in veterinary medicine worldwide. E. coli is intrinsically …

As warned by Sir Alexander Fleming in his Nobel Prize address:“the use of antimicrobials
can, and will, lead to resistance”. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has recently increased due …

Escherichia coli has a rich history as biology's 'rock star', driving advances across many
fields. In the wild, E. coli resides innocuously in the gut of humans and animals but is also a …

Objective Transmission of antimicrobial resistant bacteria between people and household
pets, such as dogs and cats, is an emerging global public health problem. This scoping …

(1) Background: there has been a growing concern about pet-spread bacterial zoonosis in
recent years. This study aimed to investigate the trend in drug-resistance of canine …

Klebsiella pneumoniae is a major pathogen implicated in nosocomial infections. Extended-
spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing K. pneumoniae isolates are a public health …

Data on community-acquired antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections are particularly sparse
in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Limited surveillance and oversight of antibiotic …

Background: We investigated the virulence factors, genes, antibiotic resistance patterns, and
genotypes (VRE and ESBL/AmpC) production in Enterococci and Enterobacteriaceae …

Dogs are a potential source of drug-resistant Escherichia coli, but very few large-scale
antimicrobial resistance surveillance studies have been conducted in the canine population …
