Colourimetric and SERS dual-mode aptasensor using Au@Ag and magnetic nanoparticles for the detection of Campylobacter jejuni
Talanta. 2023 Dec 26;270:125585. doi: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125585. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA dual-mode aptasensor has been developed for the effective detection of Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni), a major cause of gastrointestinal disease worldwide. The aptasensor utilizes nanoparticles, specifically a core-shell structure consisting of gold and silver (Au@Ag NPs), along with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). When Campylobacter jejuni is introduced, "Au@Ag NPs-Aptamer-Campylobacter jejuni-Aptamer-MNPs" sandwich complexes are formed due to the high affinity of the aptamer for the bacterial surface membrane proteins.

Predictive Mapping of Antimicrobial Resistance for Escherichia coli, Salmonella, and Campylobacter in Food-Producing Animals, Europe, 2000-2021
Emerg Infect Dis. 2024 Jan;30(1):96-104. doi: 10.3201/eid3001.221450.ABSTRACTIn Europe, systematic national surveillance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in food-producing animals has been conducted for decades; however, geographic distribution within countries remains unknown. To determine distribution within Europe, we combined 33,802 country-level AMR prevalence estimates with 2,849 local AMR prevalence estimates from 209 point prevalence surveys across 31 countries. We produced geospatial models of AMR prevalence in Escherichia coli, nontyphoidal Salmonella, and Campylobacter for cattle, pigs, and poultry. We summariz...

Circular intermediate-mediated horizontal transfer of the chromosome-encoded cfr(C) gene in multi-drug resistant Campylobacter coli from swine sources
This study revealed that novel multidrug resistance gene cfr(C) carried by C. coli from swine sources can be highly genetically diverse and transferable. Moreover, we suggest that the transferability of chromosomal cfr(C) may contribute to the global spread of multidrug resistance against clinically important antimicrobials.

Campylobacter species and genotype distribution in Finnish beef liver - Retail liver juice ideal for isolation and quantification
Int J Food Microbiol. 2023 Dec 14;411:110524. doi: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110524. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCampylobacteriosis, primarily caused by Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli, is the main bacterial zoonosis worldwide. While poultry is recognized as the main reservoir, bovines are considered another important reservoir for Campylobacter spp. found in human infections. In contrast to chicken, retail beef is seldom contaminated by Campylobacter species. However, beef liver is recognized to be frequently contaminated and has been linked to human infections via epidemiological investigations. Our aims were to eval...

Metabolomic signatures of intestinal colonization resistance against Campylobacter jejuni in mice
DiscussionThe findings highlight the role of microbiota-mediated nutrient competition and antibacterial activities of intestinal metabolites in driving murine CR against C. jejuni. The study underscores the complex dynamics of host-microbiota-pathogen interactions and sets the stage for further investigations into the mechanisms driving CR against enteric infections.

Rapid identification of enteric bacteria from whole genome sequences using average nucleotide identity metrics
Identification of enteric bacteria species by whole genome sequence (WGS) analysis requires a rapid and an easily standardized approach. We leveraged the principles of average nucleotide identity using MUMmer (ANIm) software, which calculates the percent bases aligned between two bacterial genomes and their corresponding ANI values, to set threshold values for determining species consistent with the conventional identification methods of known species. The performance of species identification was evaluated using two datasets: the Reference Genome Dataset v2 (RGDv2), consisting of 43 enteric genome assemblies representing ...
