Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial quorum sensing inhibitors: attractive alternatives for control of infectious pathogens showing multiple drug resistance.
TL;DR: QSIs are suggested as attractive alternatives for controlling human, animal and plant pathogens and their utility in agriculture and other industries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial Efflux Pumps Involved in Multidrug Resistance and their Inhibitors: Rejuvinating the Antimicrobial Chemotherapy
TL;DR: The role ofefflux pumps in governing the resistance phenotype of a pathogen, efflux pumps found in bacteria and the efflux pump inhibitors that have been studied and patented so far are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This is the first report of horizontal transfer of a plasmid between V. fluvialis and V. cholerae, and it also conferred all the transferable resistance traits except trimethoprim to the parent strain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical isolates of Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor Ogawa of 2009 from Kolkata, India: preponderance of SXT element and presence of Haitian ctxB variant.
Braj M. R. N. S. Kutar,Neha Rajpara,Hardik Upadhyay,Thandavarayan Ramamurthy,Ashima Kushwaha Bhardwaj +4 more
TL;DR: There was predominance of SXT element in these clinical isolates from Kolkata region which also accounted for their antibiotic resistance phenotype typical of this element.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergistic Effect of Various Virulence Factors Leading to High Toxicity of Environmental V. cholerae Non-O1/ Non-O139 Isolates Lacking ctx Gene : Comparative Study with Clinical Strains
Neha Rajpara,Kittappa Vinothkumar,Priyabrata Mohanty,Arun Kumar Singh,Rajesh Singh,Ritam Sinha,Dhrubajyoti Nag,Hemanta Koley,Ashima Kushwaha Bhardwaj +8 more
TL;DR: The current findings indicate the possibility that these isolates could cause some gastroenteric inflammation when ingested and may serve as progenitors for overt disease-causing organisms.
