Staphylococcus aureus is a major foodborne pathogen. The ability of S. to produce biofilm significant virulence factor, triggering its persistence in hostile environments. In this study, we screened total 420 different food samples and human hand swabs detect determine their formation ability. Samples analyzed were meat, milk, eggs, fish, fast foods, swabs. detected by culturing, staining, biochemical, PCR. Biofilm was determined Congo Red Agar (CRA) plate Crystal Violet Microtiter Plate...
The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant pathogens like Pseudomonas aeruginosa are major concerns for public health worldwide. This study aimed to assess the prevalence P . in clinical, environmental, poultry sources Bangladesh, along with their antibiotic susceptibility profiling β-lactamase virulence genes using standard molecular microbiology techniques. We collected 110 samples from five different locations, viz ., BAU residential area (BAURA; n = 15), Healthcare Center (BAUHCC;...
ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis is known for its ability to form strong biofilms and role as an opportunistic pathogen. In this study, we screened characterized a multidrug‐resistant (MDR) biofilm‐forming E. isolate obtained from shrimp sample determine genetic diversity, molecular epidemiology, underlying factors associated with antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) virulence factor (VFGs). The MTR_EFS01 strain was isolated using culturing, staining, biochemical tests MALDI‐TOF methods. MDR...
In the past decade, there has been a notable rise in foodborne outbreaks, prominently featuring Escherichia coli as primary pathogen. This bacterium, known for its prevalence illnesses and reservoir of antimicrobial resistance, was isolated from raw vegetables, soil, water samples collected rooftop surface gardens urban (Dhaka North City Corporation; DNCC Dhaka South DSCC) peri-urban (Gazipur GCC) areas Bangladesh. this study, 145 including vegetables (n = 88), 27) soils 30) 85), DSCC 30),...
The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant pathogens, such as Escherichia coli, present major global public health challenges. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, antibiotic resistance patterns, biofilm production, presence genes (ARGs) biofilm-forming in E. coli isolated from fish open-body water (wild) sources land-based aquaculture (cultured) systems Mymensingh, Bangladesh. We collected 130 (Koi: Anabas testudineus Shing: Heteropneustes fossilis) among which 70 were wild...
Enterococci are commensal bacteria that inhabit the digestive tracts of animals and humans. The transmission antibiotic-resistant genes through human-animal contact poses a potential public health risk worldwide, as zoonoses from wildlife reservoirs can occur on every continent. purpose this study was to detect Enterococcus spp. in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) investigate their resistance patterns, virulence profiles, biofilm-forming ability. Conventional screening rectal swabs (n = 67)...
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is a membrane-bound exporter protein involved in regulating serum HDL level by exporting cholesterol and phospholipids to load up lipid-poor ApoA-I ApoE, which allows the formation of nascent HDL. Mutations ABCA1 gene, when presents both alleles, disrupt canonical function ABCA1, associates with many disorders related lipid transport. Although studies have reported phenotypic effects large number variants, pathological effect non-synonymous...
The eradication of staphylococcal infections has become more difficult due to the development antibiotic resistance and virulence in biofilm-forming Staphylococcus aureus. presence life-threatening zoonotic pathogen, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), foods indicates a public health issue. This study, therefore, aimed determine factors methicillin isolates from different food handlers. A total 100 PCR-positive (97 biofilm formers three non-biofilm formers) were screened using disk...
Fish has always been an integral part of Bengali cuisine and economy. could also be a potential reservoir pathogens. This study aimed to inquisite the distribution virulence, biofilm formation, antimicrobial resistance Enterococcus faecalis isolated from wild cultivated fish in Bangladesh. A total 132 koi (Anabas scandens) catfish (Heteropneustes fossilis) were collected different markets Mymensingh district analyzed detect E. faecalis. was detected by conventional culture polymerase chain...
Birds, especially wild waterfowl and migratory birds have the potential to carry antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, but their role in dissemination of these resistant pathogens is still neglected Bangladesh. To best our knowledge, this study was carried out for first time Bangladesh isolate determine occurrence multidrug‐resistant (MDR) Shigella spp. from fecal materials birds. A total 80 ( n = 50) 30) were screened detect MDR isolates. isolated identified by culturing, staining, biochemical...
Pathogenic, antibiotic-resistant, and biofilm-forming bacteria can be transferred to humans through the consumption of contaminated seafood. The present study was carried out determine antibiotic resistance profiles virulence determinants in Enterococcus faecium isolated from seafood Bangladesh. A total 150 samples, including shrimp (n = 50), crabs 25), marine fish 75), were screened using cultural, staining, biochemical, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Congo red (CR), disk diffusion (DD)...
We announce a genome sequence of
ABSTRACT We announce the sequence of Escherichia coli MTR_GS_S1457 strain isolated from a soil sample vegetable gardening system for first time in Bangladesh. With length 4,918,647 bp, this contained one plasmid, two CRISPR arrays, 54 predicted antibiotic resistance genes, and 81 virulence factor genes.

This study announces the genome sequence of Shigella flexneri MTR_GR_V146 strain isolated from a tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) sample in Bangladesh. has 4,624,521 bp length (coverage: 73.07×), 2 CRISPR arrays, 1 plasmid, 52 predicted antibiotic resistance genes, and 53 virulence factor genes.
Antibiotic resistance, commonly known as antimicrobial is a major global health concern. In Bangladesh, resident wild birds such the house crow, common myna, and sparrow can be found near human settlements all year. As result, these could carry fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli. We collected 134 freshly dropped fecal samples for this study. E. coli was confirmed using morphological characteristics from culture plates well PCR. The Antibiogram of target isolates determined by disk...
Here, we sequence and analyze a biofilm-forming strain of Enterococcus faecalis BAU_Ef01 isolated from shrimp in Bangladesh. The whole genome the had length 2,862,301 bp, 38 contigs, an average G+C content 37.36%, 80.0× coverage, 35 predicted antibiotic resistance virulence genes each.
