Environmental exposure to active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can have negative effects on the health of ecosystems and humans. While numerous studies monitored APIs in rivers, these employ different analytical methods, measure APIs, ignored many countries world. This makes it difficult quantify scale problem from a global perspective. Furthermore, comparison existing data, generated for studies/regions/continents, is challenging due vast differences between methodologies employed....
The isolation and determination of structure some plant procyanidins in their free phenolic forms are described. distribution the tissues twenty-nine species has been examined biogenetic implications this study briefly discussed.
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to global health. Understanding the emergence, evolution, and transmission of individual antibiotic genes (ARGs) essential develop sustainable strategies combatting this threat. Here, we use metagenomic sequencing analyse ARGs in 757 sewage samples from 243 cities 101 countries, collected 2016 2019. We find regional patterns resistomes, these differ between subsets corresponding drug classes are partly driven by taxonomic variation....
The global emergence and increased spread of antibiotic resistance threaten the effectiveness antibiotics and, thus, health entire population. Therefore, understanding resistomes in different geographical locations is crucial fight against crisis.
Honey is a very complex biological product. It has great diversity, giving it multitude of properties, both nutritionally and therapeutically. This study aimed to the physicochemical microbiological characteristics honeys collected during dry rainy seasons in different phytogeographical areas Benin. The revealed that all had pH, water content, electrical conductivity, ash free acidity, total sugars, reducing respectively, ranging within 3.65–4.09; 12.07–13.16%; 530.25–698.50 μ s/cm;...
This study presents antimicrobial properties of Uvaria chamae roots, commonly used for the treatment various infections in south Benin. Their constituents were extracted and then fractionated order to isolate active ingredients. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests performed against several multidrug-resistant bacteria using Mueller Hilton well agar diffusion method. Results showed that ethanol extracts highly Gram-positive cocci. activity was more extensive than measured from conventional...
In this study, nine PPCPs were widely detected in surface and groundwater. Ciprofloxacin methylparaben the most dominant antibiotic paraben compounds, respectively, with ciprofloxacin posing a high health risk to all population groups.
Maternal and neonatal infections pose a significant public health challenge, particularly in developing countries like Benin. This retrospective study investigates the frequency determinants of maternal Benin during 2022, utilizing data from six reference hospitals. The includes 123 neonates suspected infection, analyzing factors such as birth weight, breastfeeding practices, clinical delivery parameters, laboratory-confirmed infection rates. Findings reveal that 32% cases were confirmed...
Cholera, one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases, remains rampant and frequent in Tanzania thus hinders existing control measures. The present study was undertaken to evaluate occurrence toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 wastewater, fish vegetables during a non-outbreak period Morogoro, Tanzania.From October 2014 February 2015, 60 wastewater samples, samples from sewage stabilization ponds irrigated vegetable were collected. Samples cultured for identification V. using conventional...
Abstract This study aims to evaluate the bacteriological, chemical, and toxicological quality of hospital effluents in Benin. Eighteen (18) samples were collected from south north Benin, poles set up. Bacteriological analysis was carried out according French National Organization for Standardization (AFNOR) standard. Identification bacterial species isolated performed using API 20E gallery specific biochemical tests. Antibiotic residues searched by following ELISA kit instructions. 109...
Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales are recognized as significant pathogens due to their resistance multiple antibiotics. This study aimed determine the prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) in different settings, including healthy pregnant women, food chain, and environment tertiary hospitals Benin.Samples were collected from various sources, fecal samples hospital canteens, effluents four southern Benin. Fecal plated on MacConkey agar...
Salmonella spp. are one of the leading foodborne pathogens worldwide naturally found in intestines many animals. People that direct contact with infected animals or their cages may become ill. The aim this study was to determine prevalence, antibiogram and virulence genes associated serovars from fecal samples intended for consumption Southern Benin. Out a total 406 samples, 2.46% were positive. isolates identified multidrug-resistant penicillins, first generation cephalosporins some...
Abstract Background Candidiasis, an opportunistic cosmopolitan disease is nowadays like bacterial infections which a real public health problem. In view of the emergence Candida strains resistant to existing antifungal agents, alternative solutions should be considered. This purpose this ethnobotanical survey, aims identify medicinal plant species traditionally used treat candidiasis in traditional markets southern Benin. Methods The study was performed from October 2015 January 2018...
The occurrence of toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 during a non- outbreak period in Lake Victoria was studied and genetic characteristics for environmental persistence relatedness to pandemic strains were assessed. We analyzed 360 samples carps, phytoplankton water collected 2017 dry rainy seasons the Tanzanian basin Victoria. Samples tested using PCR (ompW ctxA) with DNA extracted from bacterial isolates enriched alkaline peptone water. Isolates screened polyvalent antiserum followed by...
Diarrheal and infectious diseases are the leading causes of morbidity mortality worldwide. With emergence multidrug resistant bacteria, treatment these is problematic. This situation stresses need to search for alternative antibacterial sources notably medicinal plants. The present study aimed assess activity three leafy vegetables commonly used treat diarrheal diseases. Therefore, aqueous hydro-ethanolic extracts leaves Crateva adansonii, Vernonia amygdalina Sesamum radiatum were prepared...
Abstract Objective Poultry is commonly considered to be the primary vehicle for Campylobacter infection in humans. The aim of this study assess risk Campylobacteriosis chicken meat consumers southern Benin by assessing prevalence and resistance profile coli jejuni isolated from thigh Southern Benin. Results contamination rate samples was 32.8%. From percentage, 59.5% were local thighs 40.5% imported (p = 0.045). After molecular identification, on 256 analyzed, C. 23.4% 7.8% , with a...
The use of catheters and bladder in hospitals can increase the risk bacterial infections. This study aimed to identify strains involved catheter-related infections (CRI) southern Benin hospitals. included 407 samples, including 95 catheter tip samples 312 urine collected from patients on first day 48 h after admission. were analyzed using traditional isolation identification methods, while VITEK-2. Antibiotic sensitivity was tested Kirby Bauer method, virulence resistance genes detected...
Abstract Acinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen that mostly associated with hospital-acquired infections. The rapid emergence of multi- and pan-drug-resistant strains poses increasing challenge in hospitals. Phage therapy offers one treatment option for infections caused by A. . We isolated three phages from Beninese hospital wastewater – fBenAci001, fBenAci002, fBenAci003 infected clinical Finnish patients. Phylogenetic analysis showed these resemble the genus Friunavirus ,...
