Antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative Bacteria in Urban Flies, and the Increased Risk Posed by Open-air Markets in Mexico City

Carlos F. Amábile-Cuevas & Daniel Romero-Romero · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2021

Aims: Flies are known to spread antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB), especially from farms to cities; but they may also play a role in the intra-urban dispersion of ARB, in conjunction with poor sanitary conditions. Here, we characterized gram-negative ARB isolated from urban fli...

Susceptibility to Antibiotics and Reactive Oxygen Species in Escherichia coli: A Survey of Clinical and Environmental Isolates

Carlos F. Amábile-Cuevas, Leticia Martínez & Irma Rosas · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2021

Aims: Some bacterial responses to oxidative stress also diminish antibiotic susceptibility; also, some antibiotics do increase oxidative stress within bacterial cells. Linkage or cross-resistance to prooxidants and antibiotics could facilitate the selection of antibiotic resistan...
