The evolution of bacteria on a "Mega-Plate" petri dish A list of antibiotic resistant bacteria is provided below. These bacteria have shown antibiotic resistance (or antimicrobial resistance). Gram positive Clostridioides difficile Clostridioides difficile is a nosocomial pathogen that causes diarrheal disease worldwide. Diarrhea caused by C. difficile can be life-threatening. Infections are ...
E. coli (EIEC) found only in humans Bloody or nonbloody EIEC infection causes a syndrome that is identical to shigellosis, with profuse diarrhea and high fever. Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) found in humans, cattle, and goats Bloody or nonbloody The most infamous member of this pathotype is strain O157:H7, which causes bloody diarrhea and no ...
A 2008 review of 42 studies of in vitro susceptibility of bacteria to tigecycline showed that MDR K. pneumoniae and E. coli, including those that were carbapenem resistant, were susceptible more than 90% of the time. A limited number of patients have been treated with tigecycline, but the FDA has approved it in certain cases with synergies of ...
ESKAPE is an acronym comprising the scientific names of six highly virulent and antibiotic resistant bacterial pathogens including: Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter spp. [1] The acronym is sometimes extended to ESKAPEE to include Escherichia coli.

The CDC recommends that anyone who recently ate a McDonald's Quarter Pounder and is suffering from severe E. coli symptoms — such as bloody diarrhea, a fever of more than 102 degrees, vomiting ...
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is a type of strain from E.coli. E.coli causes intestinal infections, some intestinal infections include diarrhea, fever and abdominal pain. Most severe cases can lead to bloody diarrhea, dehydration or even kidney failure.
Dozens of people across the U.S. have contracted E. coli traced to ingredients in McDonald's Quarter Pounders, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Tuesday. As a result ...
Escherichia coli, E. coli for short, causes severe stomach cramps, diarrhea (sometimes, with blood) and vomiting. Fever, typically, under 101 degrees can be associated with the illness. Most ...
