Retrospective surveillance of viable Bacillus cereus group contaminations in commercial food and feed vitamin B2 products sold on the Belgian market using whole-genome sequencing

whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and subsequently characterized in terms of sequence type (ST), virulence gene profile, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) gene profile, plasmid content, and phylogenomic relationships. ...

Persistence of the Staphylococcus aureus epidemic European fusidic acid-resistant impetigo clone (EEFIC) in Belgium.

from CO- SSTI each month. Isolates were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility to oxacillin, mupirocin and fusidic acid. Resistant isolates were also spa typed and tested for the presence of the genes ...

Whole-Genome Sequencing-Based Screening of MRSA in Patients and Healthcare Workers in Public Hospitals in Benin.

From this collection, 27 high-quality WGS datasets were obtained, which carried numerous genes and mutations associated with antimicrobial resistance. The gene was detected in all the sequenced isolates. ...

Transforming Shiga toxin-producing surveillance through whole genome sequencing in food safety practices.

Complete WGS-based isolate characterization enabled expanding epidemiological insights related to circulating serotypes, virulence genes and antimicrobial resistance across different reservoirs. Moreover, ...

Targeted Chromosomal Barcoding Establishes Direct Genotype-Phenotype Associations for Antibiotic Resistance in Mycobacterium abscessus.

Gonzalo-Asensio, Jesús Source: Microbiol Spectr (2023) Abstract: A bedaquiline-resistant Mycobacterium abscessus isolate was sequenced, and a candidate mutation in the gene was identified as responsible for the ...

Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety

therefore a selection marker is often used to detect the bacteria who have included the modification in their genome. Antimicrobial resistance genes are often used as one of these markers. The construct may ...

Report on the feasibility of using Hi-C sequencing for metagenomics to define the context of AMR genes

https://zenodo.org/record/7433351#.Y7aj4HbMKM8 Keywords: Antimicrobial resistance Hi-C metagenomics Health Topics:  Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) Food consumption and food safety Animal health Health and environment Résistance aux ...

Metagenomic Characterization of Multiple Genetically Modified Bacillus Contaminations in Commercial Microbial Fermentation Products

modifications that may hamper their ability to sporulate. Moreover, several samples contained viable Bacillus strains. Altogether these contaminations constitute a considerable load of antimicrobial resistance ...

First Belgian Report of Ertapenem Resistance in an ST11 Klebsiella Pneumoniae Strain Isolated from a Dog Carrying blaSCO-1 and blaDHA-1 Combined with Permeability Defects

(MLST) and the identification and localization of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and virulence-associated genes. Three plasmids were reconstructed from the whole-genome sequence (WGS) data: the conjugative ...

Genomic epidemiology of persistently circulating MDR Shigella sonnei strains associated with men who have sex with men (MSM) in Belgium (2013–19)

Ceyssens Source: Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, Volume 77, Issue 1 (2021) Abstract: OBJECTIVES:  Shigella sonnei resistant to first-line antibiotics azithromycin and ciprofloxacin are on the rise ...
