    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_antibiotic...

    Infection with Escherichia coli and Salmonella can result from the consumption of contaminated food and polluted water. Both of these bacteria are well known for causing nosocomial (hospital-linked) infections, and often, these strains found in hospitals are antibiotic resistant because of adaptations to wide spread antibiotic use.

  3. Escherichia coli - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escherichia_coli

    Carbapenem-resistant E. coli (carbapenemase-producing E. coli) that are resistant to the carbapenem class of antibiotics, considered the drugs of last resort for such infections. They are resistant because they produce an enzyme called a carbapenemase that disables the drug molecule.

    Public Health England reported that the total number of antibiotic resistant infections in England rose by 9% from 55,812 in 2017 to 60,788 in 2018, but antibiotic consumption had fallen by 9% from 20.0 to 18.2 defined daily doses per 1,000 inhabitants per day between 2014 and 2018. [189]

    E. coli lives on the surface of the meat, so when it’s ground up, it gets distributed throughout the meat. If the meat is not ground up, the cooking process will kill any bacteria on the outside ...

  6. Gram-negative bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gram-negative_bacteria

    Based upon a number of different observations, including that the gram-positive bacteria are the most sensitive to antibiotics and that the gram-negative bacteria are, in general, resistant to antibiotics, it has been proposed that the outer cell membrane in gram-negative bacteria (diderms) evolved as a protective mechanism against antibiotic ...

    Antibiotics which may be used to treat E. coli infection include amoxicillin, as well as other semisynthetic penicillins, many cephalosporins, carbapenems, aztreonam, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, ciprofloxacin, nitrofurantoin and the aminoglycosides. [citation needed] Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem.

    "The particular bacteria that are responsible for 80 percent or so of these urinary tract infections are a form of E. coli," said study co-author Edward Egelman in a video released by the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persister_cells

    Persister cells in E. coli can transport intracellular accumulations antibiotic using an energy requiring efflux pump called TolC. [21] A persister subpopulation has also been demonstrated in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Yeast persisters are triggered in a small subset of unperturbed exponentially growing cells by spontaneously ...
