The occurrence of biofouling restricts the widespread application membrane bioreactors (MBRs) in wastewater treatment. Regulation quorum sensing (QS) is a promising approach to control MBRs, yet underlying mechanisms are complex and remain be illustrated. A fundamental understanding relationship between QS MBRs lacking, which hampers development quenching (QQ) techniques (QQMBRs). While many QQ microorganisms have been isolated thus far, critical criteria for selecting desirable still missing. Furthermore, there inconsistent results regarding lifecycle effects on physicochemical characteristics microbial communities mixed liquor assemblages QQMBRs, might result unreliable inefficient applications. This review aims comprehensively summarize timely research highlight important often ignored perspectives MBRs. We consider what this "information" can cannot tell us explore its values addressing specific questions QQMBRs.

To achieve targeting strategies propose substrate specificity degradation capability surface area pore structures media as select functional microbes media, respectively. validate retardation efficiency, further specify properties, community composition, succession Finally, provide scale-up considerations QQMBRs terms debated lifecycle, practical synergistic strategies, potential cost savings presents limitations classic QS/QQ hypotheses advances role development/retardation builds bridge understandings applications technology.

Abstract: Antimicrobial resistance, referring to microorganisms' capability subsist and proliferate even when there are antimicrobials is a foremost threat public health globally. The appearance of antimicrobial resistance can be ascribed anthropological, animal, environmental factors. Human-related causes include overuse misuse in medicine, antibiotic-containing cosmetics biocides utilization, inadequate sanitation hygiene settings. Prophylactic therapeutic overuse, using as feed additives, microbes resistant antibiotics genes animal excreta, residue found animal-origin food excreta animals related contributive factors for the antibiotic emergence spread. Environmental including naturally existing genes, improper disposal unused antimicrobials, contamination from waste settings, farms, pharmaceutical industries, use agricultural chemicals facilitatet its Wildlife has plausible role Adopting one-health approach involving properly humans, improving spaces implementing coordinated governmental regulations crucial combating resistance. Collaborative cooperative involvement stakeholders public, veterinary ecological sectors circumvent problem effectively. Keywords: one health, gene, environment, wildlife

Prokaryotic adaptation is strongly influenced by the horizontal acquisition of beneficial traits via mobile genetic elements (MGEs), such as viruses/bacteriophages and plasmids. However, MGEs can also impose a fitness cost due to their often parasitic nature differing evolutionary trajectories. In response, prokaryotes have evolved diverse immune mechanisms against MGEs. Recently, our understanding abundance diversity prokaryotic systems has greatly expanded. These defense degrade invading material, inhibit genome replication, or trigger abortive infection, leading population protection. this review, we highlight these strategies, focusing on most recent discoveries. The study defenses not only sheds light microbial evolution but uncovers novel enzymatic activities with promising biotechnological applications.

Drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus stands as a prominent pathogen in nosocomial and community-acquired infections, capable of inciting various infections at different sites patients. This includes bacteremia (SaB), which exhibits severe infection frequently associated with significant mortality rate approximately 25%. In the absence better alternative therapies, antibiotics is still main approach for treating infections. However, excessive use has, turn, led to an increase antimicrobial resistance. Hence, it imperative that new strategies are developed control drug-resistant S. Bacteriophages viruses ability infect bacteria. Bacteriophages, were used treat bacterial before advent antibiotics, but subsequently replaced by due limited theoretical understanding inefficient preparation processes time. Recently, phages have attracted attention many researchers again because serious problem antibiotic article provides comprehensive overview phage biology, animal models, diverse clinical case treatments, trials context therapy. It also assesses strengths limitations therapy outlines future prospects research directions. review expected offer valuable insights engaged phage-based treatments

Abstract Bacterial pathogens carrying multidrug resistance (MDR) plasmids are a major threat to human health. The acquisition of antibiotic genes (ARGs) in is often facilitated by mobile genetic elements that copy or translocate ARGs between DNA molecules. agglomeration generates islands comprising multiple ARGs. However, whether the emergence restricted specific MDR plasmid lineages remains understudied. Here we show biased towards large lineages. Analyzing 6784 2441 Escherichia , Salmonella and Klebsiella isolates, quantify 84% found islands. We furthermore observe rapid evolution ARG combinations Most regions identified as shared among closely related but rarely distantly plasmids. Our results suggest presence barriers for dissemination lineages, which properties, host range evolutionary history. attributed workings operate within framework existing

The escalating global health crisis of antibiotic resistance, driven by the rapid emergence multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial pathogens, necessitates urgent and innovative countermeasures. This review comprehensively examines diverse mechanisms employed bacteria to evade action, including alterations in cell membrane permeability, efflux pump overexpression, biofilm formation, target site modifications, enzymatic degradation antibiotics. Specific focus is given transport systems such as ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, resistance–nodulation–division (RND) pumps, major facilitator superfamily (MFS) multidrug toxic compound extrusion (MATE) systems, small resistance (SMR) families, proteobacterial antimicrobial (PACE) families. Additionally, explores burden MDR pathogens evaluates emerging therapeutic strategies, quorum quenching (QQ), probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics, peptides (AMPs), stem applications, immunotherapy, antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), bacteriophage. Furthermore, this discusses novel agents, animal-venom-derived compounds nanobiotics, promising alternatives conventional interplay between clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) adaptive immunity analyzed, revealing opportunities for targeted genetic interventions. By synthesizing current advancements underscores necessity interdisciplinary collaboration among biomedical scientists, researchers, pharmaceutical industry drive development agents. Ultimately, comprehensive analysis provides a roadmap future research, emphasizing need sustainable cooperative approaches combat safeguard health.
