Antibiotic residues in commercial freshwater fish from southeast China: distribution and human health risk assessment
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2024 Mar 2. doi: 10.1007/s11356-024-32708-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe investigated 14 antibiotic residues in 8 marketed freshwater fish species from southeast China and estimated the associated health risks to local consumers. The antibiotic residues were determined by UPLC-MS/MS. Our findings revealed widespread distribution of quinolones (QNs), tetracyclines (TCs), and chloramphenicols (CAPs) in the freshwater fish. Notably, the average concentrations of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin reached levels as high as 62.5 μg/kg wet weight (ww) and 11.7 μg/kg ww, respectively, and detection ...

Distribution and Drug Resistance of Common Pathogens Causing Lower Respiratory Tract Infection in Xinjiang Region
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in a hospital in Xinjiang, the most common pathogenic bacteria are gram-negative bacilli, mainly Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Both resistant and non-resistant strains showed sensitivity to amikacin and tigecycline. Additionally, staphylococcus accounted for half of the total number of gram-positive bacteria, among which methicillin-resistant strains were more sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid.PMID:38430170 (Source: Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine)
