Multidrug-resistant E. coli encoding high genetic diversity in carbohydrate metabolism genes displace commensal E. coli from the intestinal tract. PLOS Biology, 2023; 21 (10): e3002329 DOI: 10. ...

Multidrug-resistant E. coli were found in 40% of store-bought meat samples tested in one Spanish city in 2020, according to data that will be presented this weekend at the European Congress of ...

In a second part of the study, the multi-drug resistant strain was found to efficiently displace an already established gut-dwelling E.coli from the mouse intestinal tract.

VANCOUVER – Coliform bacteria – including antibiotic-resistant E. coli – have been detected on 72 per cent of lettuce samples collected from farmers markets across southwestern B.C ...

A version of E coli known as ST410 became the most common strain of drug-resistant E. coli in Chinese hospitals from 2017 to 2021. The latest strain, which was described in the new study, is stronger ...

Urine tests then revealed he had an antibiotic resistant strain of the bug. Studies have suggested E. coli accounts for 90 per cent of UTIs and kidney stones or some other obstruction are a ...

Maria Sjölund's team found the drug-resistant E. coli in fecal samples collected in 2005 from 97 birds, mainly gulls and geese, in Alaska, Greenland and Siberia.

This was followed by tetracyclines at 64 percent and sulfonamides (also known as sulfa drugs) at 59 percent. The researchers also peered into the genomes of 74 multi-drug resistant E. coli strains.

Wood says that while the antibiotic-resistant E. coli bacteria she discovered are benign, the fear is that they can transfer genes to disease-causing E. coli. Wood started her research years ago ...

Researchers studying antimicrobial-resistant E. coli – the leading cause of human death due to antimicrobial resistance worldwide – have identified a mechanism in dogs that may render multiple ...
