Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Determinants of Antibiotic Use by the Elderly in Marrakech, MoroccoNaima Aoutil, Mohamed Cherkaoui, Mohamed BouskraouiAntibiotics are essential for the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections; however, their inappropriate use among elderly populations poses serious risks, including the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms. Antimicrobial resistance has become a critical global public health challenge, with irrational antibiotic use being one of its primary drivers. In Morocco, data on antibiotic use among older adults remain scarce, particularly regarding … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2026 · 1,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Diagnostic Tests for Fosfomycin Resistance Detection in Clinically Significant EnterobacteralesSantoshi Maruti Naik, Biranthabail Dhanashree, Himani KotianMultidrug resistance in Enterobacterales has triggered interest in old antibiotics like fosfomycin. Various methods to determine fosfomycin resistance are time-consuming and yield unpredictable results. Hence, the study was undertaken to compare the rapid fosfomycin NP test with the recommended agar dilution test and few other tests. In this cross-sectional, time-bound, prospective study, Enterobacterales (N = 110) were tested for their … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 21 Nov 2025 · 2,113 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Evaluation of Synergistic Antibacterial Effects in Blended Essential Oil against Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative PathogensMin-Gi Kwon, Jae Kyung KimThe rising emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has heightened the search for novel antibiotic agents. Essential Oils (EOs) are complex combinations of volatile organic compounds generated by plants, with many exhibiting significant antimicrobial properties. This study evaluates the antibacterial movement of single and blended EOs against representative gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 7 Jul 2025 · 5,481 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanistic Insights of Actions of Metal Nanoparticles on Multidrug-Resistant BacteriaSeham S. Alzahrani, Hani Mohammed Ali, Mohamed M. AhmedMultidrug-Resistant bacteria (MDR) are the most serious threat to public health. The number of infections caused by resistant strains is on the rise all over the world. At this time, new techniques for developing antimicrobial drugs are becoming necessary. Metallic Nanoparticles (MNPs) in the biomedical field are one of the most promising methods to overcome antibiotic resistance. Nanoparticles have recently … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2021 · 6,374 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDominant Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria in Five Biggest Hospitals in Asir Region from March to June 2018Mohammed AlmaghrabiThere is a rapid increase in the emergence of multidrug resistance which consider as one of the public health threats in all over the world. MDR was defined as acquired non-susceptibility to at least one agent in three or more antimicrobial categories. The present study aims to determine the dominant multi-drug resistant bacteria in the five biggest hospitals in Asir … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2021 · 6,782 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of tet Gene in Multidrug-Resistant Salmonella spp. Isolates from Layers and Broiler BreedersAgustin Indrawati, Leila Nur Azizah, I Wayan Teguh Wibawan et al.The present study was conducted with the following aims: (i) To detect the multidrug-resistant Salmonella spp. isolates recovered from faeces, litter and drinking water in layers and broiler breeders’ farms and (ii) to carried out the detection of the tet gene. A total of 21 Salmonella isolates were subjected to Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assay to determine the presence of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2020 · 7,007 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity and Drug Resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Isolates and Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Identification from Presumptive Tuberculosis Cases in Oaxaca, MexicoNakamura-Lopez Yuko, Valencia-Carmona Oscar Daniel, Martinez-Cruz Perla Monica et al.Tuberculosis (TB) is a re-emerging health problem worldwide. In Mexico, information about genetic diversity and drug resistance of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis complex (MTBc) is limited. Samples from 463 Presumptive TB cases were tested for TB by smear, culture and PCR, from which 19.2% were identify as MTBc and 16% as nontuberculous mycobacteria. MTBc isolates were characterized by Large Sequence Polymorphisms (LSPs), … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2020 · 7,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in Dogs and Cats in Selangor, MalaysiaMohamed Abdelrahman Mohamed, Saleha Abd Aziz, Gurmeet Kaur Dhaliwal et al.Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is an emerging coagulase gram-positive staphylococci in dogs and cats. It has now become a threat to animal health due to its multidrug resistance leading to very limited therapeutic options particularly in the treatment of small animals and therefore, requires urgent action to control its spread.
