    Abstract Over the last decade the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance in bacteria has led to a new fear in the scientific and medical communities as well as among members of the general public. Due to the lack of development of new antibiotics, there is a need to reconsider old drugs or dosages rejected because of their toxicity. As a society, if we tolerate the potential toxicity of other drugs, such as anticancer drugs, why do we refuse to accept the use of toxic but effective antibiotics in life-threatening infections? The aim of this review is to provide insight into the reasons why the medical community remains unjustifiably unwilling to accept the risk of toxicity and the adverse effects of antibiotics that, nonetheless, might be required to treat severe infections, including those due to multidrug-resistant bacteria.

    Abstract We decipher the resistome of Chryseobacterium indologenes MARS15, an emerging multidrug-resistant clinical strain, using the whole genome sequencing strategy. The bacterium was isolated from the sputum of a hospitalized patient with cystic fibrosis in the Timone Hospital in Marseille, France. Genome sequencing was done with Illumina MiSeq using a paired-end strategy. The in silico analysis was done by RAST, the resistome by the ARG-ANNOT database and detection of polyketide synthase (PKS) by ANTISMAH. The genome size of C. indologenes MARS15 is 4 972 580 bp with 36.4% GC content. This multidrug-resistant bacterium was resistant to all β-lactams, including imipenem, and also to colistin. The resistome of C. indologenes MARS15 includes Ambler class A and B β-lactams encoding bla CIA and bla IND-2 genes and MBL (metallo-β-lactamase) genes, the CAT (chloramphenicol acetyltransferase) gene and the multidrug efflux pump AcrB. Specific features include the presence of an urease operon, an intact prophage and a carotenoid biosynthesis pathway. Interestingly, we report for the first time in C. indologenes a PKS cluster that might be responsible for secondary metabolite biosynthesis, similar to erythromycin. The whole genome sequence analysis provides insight into the resistome and the discovery of new details, such as the PKS cluster.

    Abstract Background: Elizabethkingia anophelis
    Methods: Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was conducted to accurately identify isolate species and elucidate the determinants of β-lactam resistance. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using broth microdilution and disk diffusion assays. To assess the functional contribution of the major metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) encoding genes to the resistance profile,

    Abstract Food-borne infections are major causes of public health concern in developing and developed countries. During the past decade, the Institut Hospitalo-Universitaire Méditerranée Infection has conducted or been involved in multiple investigations that aimed at identifying the sources and strains responsible for food-borne diseases and therefore at improving the understanding, diagnosis, prevention and control of these infections. Investigations were conducted in the Mediterranean area and in sub-Saharan Africa on more than 15 food-borne agents, 17 food products and 14 antibiotic resistance-associated genes. Multiple sources, including unexpected ones, and pathogens, including emerging ones, were involved. Travelling in developing countries and zoonoses are major contributors to food-borne infections, while food-borne transmission of resistance-associated genes is increasingly reported. However, risk factors and pathogens associated with food-borne infections likely remain untapped and must be more extensively investigated, monitored and regularly reassessed. Diagnostic tests based on new technologies and real-time surveillance tools based on microbiology laboratory data are promising approaches to detect known food-borne infections and decipher new ones. Studies of the microbiota and its relationships with dietary patterns are also worth being conducted.

    Abstract The emergence and rapid spread of carbapenemases in Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter (EPA) species is becoming a major public health crisis worldwide, and is responsible for large number of hospital-acquired and nosocomial infections. In this article, we review the current knowledge on the classification, phylogeny and genetic platforms of the main carbapenemases already described in Gram-negative bacteria.
