Metagenomic studies have made it possible to deepen the analysis of abundance bacterial populations that carry resistance and virulence determinants in wastewater environment. In this study, a longitudinal collection samples community hospital from August 2021 September 2022 was obtained. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing bioinformatic were performed characterize abundance, antimicrobial genes (ARGs), plasmids, factor (VFGs) contained wastewater. The microbial composition showed most abundant...
The metagenomic surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in wastewater has been suggested as a methodological tool to characterize the distribution, status, and trends antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In this study, cross-sectional collection samples hospital-associated raw treated were obtained from February March 2020. Shotgun sequencing bioinformatic analysis performed bacterial abundance gene analysis. main phyla found all follows: Proteobacteria, Bacteroides, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria....
The objective of the study was to detect multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus sp. and Enterococcus isolates in municipal hospital wastewater determine their elimination or persistence after treatment. Between August 2021 September 2022, raw treated samples were collected at two community treatment plants (WWTPs). In each season year, duplicate WWTPs studied. Screening presumptive identification staphylococci enterococci performed using chromoagars, with Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption...
The objective of this study was to investigate the presence and persistence carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella spp. isolated from wastewater treated two tertiary hospitals in Mexico. We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional hospital treatment plants, which were sampled February 2020. obtained 30 isolates. Bacterial identification carried out by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Time Flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS®) antimicrobial susceptibility profiles performed using...
The objective of this study was to determine the presence and persistence antimicrobial-resistant enterobacteria their clonal distribution in hospital wastewater. A descriptive cross-sectional carried out wastewater from two Mexico City tertiary level hospitals. In February March 2020, eight samples were collected 26 isolates recovered, 19 (73.1%) identified as E. coli, 5 (19.2%) Acinetobacter spp. 2 (7.7%) Enterobacter Antimicrobial susceptibility profiles performed using VITEK 2® automated...
The inappropriate use of antibiotics in the livestock sector has been described as one causes emergence antimicrobial resistance. Information on antibiotic small-scale farms is limited. Our objective was to identify patterns cattle Queretaro, Mexico. Cross-sectional study with 50 farmers from rural areas surveyed municipality Tequisquiapan, Queretaro between May–October 2022. Convenience sampling, non-probabilistic, were selected using respondent-driven sampling methodology. A face-to-face...
The most widely accepted ethical concept for the mitigation of harm to animals used in biomedical research is known as 3Rs, which refer replacement, reduction, and refinement. aim our study was determine regulatory criteria that researchers Mexico consider when developing their animal protocols members ethics committees use they evaluate approve these protocols. We circulated a survey 300 individuals from different institutions received responses 179 on questions related knowledge,...
The overpopulation of dogs and cats has generated socioeconomic, political, animal welfare problems, in addition to an important public health problem, due the risk zoonotic diseases. This study aimed analyze spatiotemporal coverage canine feline sterilization services provided by a governmental agency rural urban areas municipality Tequisquiapan, Querétaro.
Every year, 20.4 million tons of food are wasted in Mexico, which is about 34% the national production. To date, there no official strategy, nor a guide to prioritize actions be implemented. At same time, global trend reduce waste based on solutions that follow priorities established for management general, focusing first prevention and then reuse recycling. The aim this work identify, characterize, analyze Mexican public policies waste, compare them with international guidelines, provide...
Rabies is a neglected zoonosis with adverse public health effects. We describe the community engagement in containing bovine paralytic rabies outbreak two rural communities of Mexico. carried out participatory rapid appraisal using different participation techniques for 2 weeks, including information sharing, meetings, prioritization activities, and training. In addition to animal census vaccination, necropsy immunofluorescence tests were performed diagnose rabies. Cattle mortality during...
Dog and cat aggressions are public health concerns associated with rabies transmission to the human population. The social environmental conditions of marginalized urban areas stand a risk due people’s contact dogs. This study aimed identify spatial patterns related dog aggression in densely populated area center Mexico City, analyzing at census unit level 2018-2020 triennium. cross-sectional was carried out Coyoacán, south-central City’s urbanized region. total number cases (n=1,078)...
