Most bacteria in nature exist in aggregated communities known as biofilms, and cells within a biofilm demonstrate major physiological changes compared to their planktonic counterparts. Biofilms are associated with many different types of infections which can have severe impacts on patients. Infections involving a biofilm component are often chronic and highly recalcitrant to antibiotic therapy…

Abstract Fungal pathogens are a severe public health problem. The leading causative agents of systemic fungal infections include species from the Candida , Cryptococcus , and Aspergillus genera. As opportunistic pathogens, these fungi are generally harmless in healthy hosts; however, they can cause significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Despite the profound impact of…
The environment is increasingly recognised as a hotspot for the selection and dissemination of antibiotic resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes. These can be selected for by antibiotics and non-antibiotic agents (such as metals and biocides), with the evidence to support this well established by observational and experimental studies. However, there is emerging evidence to…
Emerging resistance to all available antibiotics highlights the need to develop new antibiotics with novel mechanisms of action. Most of the currently used antibiotics target Gram-positive bacteria while Gram-negative bacteria easily bypass the action of most drug molecules because of their unique outer membrane. This additional layer acts as a potent barrier restricting the entry…
Antimicrobial resistance is due to genetic changes that allow bacteria to evade antibiotic treatment. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing is critical for the detection of antibiotic-resistant strains, the selection of effective therapeutic strategies against bacterial infections, and the evaluation of the efficacy of novel antimicrobials. Among the variety of clinical microbiology methods used for antibiotic susceptibility testing,…
