This study aimed to investigate the in vitro antimicrobial and biological characteristics of Enterococcus casseliflavus TN-47 (PP411196), isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of M. alternatus in Jilin Province, PR China. Among 13 isolates obtained from the insects, five were preliminarily screened for antimicrobial activity. E. casseliflavus TN-47, which exhibited the strongest antimicrobial activity, was identified. E. casseliflavus TN-47 possessed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus USA300 and Salmonella enterica serovar Pullorum ATCC 19945. Furthermore, E. casseliflavus TN-47 was sensitive to tetrac...

Antimicrobial and Probiotic Potential of Lactobacilli Associated with Traditional Fermented Beverages
In this study, we investigated the antimicrobial and probiotic potential of lactobacilli isolated from fermented beverages produced traditionally by ethnic groups in Northeast India. Out of thirty Lactobacilli, fifteen exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter aerogenes with significant anti-biofilm and anti-quorum sensing activity. These isolates also showed characteristics associated with probiotic properties, such as tolerance to low pH and bile salts, survival in the gastric tract,...

The virtue of training: extending phage host spectra against vancomycin-resistant < em > Enterococcus faecium < /em > strains using the Appelmans method
Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 2024 Apr 9:e0143923. doi: 10.1128/aac.01439-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPhage therapy has (re)emerged as a serious possibility for combating multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, including those caused by vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium strains. These opportunistic pathogens belong to a specific clonal complex 17, against which relatively few phages have been screened. We isolated a collection of 21 virulent phages growing on these vancomycin-resistant isolates. Each of these phages harbored a typical narrow plaquing host range, lysing at most 5 strains and covering together...

Antibacterial Property of Silver Nanoparticles Green Synthesized from Stachys schtschegleevii Plant Extract on Urinary Tract Infection Bacteria
Curr Microbiol. 2024 Apr 9;81(5):135. doi: 10.1007/s00284-024-03664-2.ABSTRACTUrinary tract infections are one of the most common infections worldwide. Given the increasing antibiotic resistance, monitoring antibiotic sensitivity patterns is crucial. Furthermore, silver nanoparticles synthesized from Stachys schtschegleevii can exhibit potent antibacterial, antibiotic, and antifungal properties. The plant S. schtschegleevii was collected from its natural habitat, dried, and its extract was then exposed to silver nitrate. Under specific conditions, silver nanoparticles were synthesized from it. Subsequently, the production ...

Unitary Tract Infection Treatment
In this study, the authors review antibiotic treatment options for both acute uncomplicated and complicated urinary tract infection (UTI). In addition, they also review regimens used in the setting of drug-resistant pathogens including vancomycin resistant Enterococcus, extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacterals, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterals and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas, which are encountered with increasing frequency.

Characterization of biliary and duodenal microbiota in patients with primary and recurrent choledocholithiasis
ConclusionsThe duodenal microbiota was in an imbalance in CDL. The duodenal microbiota was probably the main source of the biliary microbiota and was closely related to CDL formation and recurrence.Enterococcus,Fusobacterium,Escherichia andKlebsiella might contribute to CDL recurrence.Clinical trialsThe study was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (https://www.chictr.org.cn/index.html, ChiCTR2000033940).
