White R, Bull M, Barker C, Arnott J, Wootton M, Jones L, et al.
Nat Commun . 2024 Feb; 15(1):1371. PMID: 38355632
Antibiotic resistance is a significant global public health concern. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli sequence type (ST)131, a widely prevalent multidrug-resistant clone, is frequently associated with bacteraemia. This study investigates third-generation cephalosporin...

Clin Microbiol Infect . 2020 Nov; PMID: 33253940
Objectives: To evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods in Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC). Methods: Minocycline, ciprofloxacin, trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole, meropenem, ceftazidime and chloramphenicol were tested against 155 BCC...

Wootton M, MacGowan A, Howe R
J Antimicrob Chemother . 2017 Jan; 72(2):323-329. PMID: 28115501
Susceptibility testing of bacteria is one of the most important tests performed in a clinical microbiology laboratory. Improvements in laboratory techniques, especially the move towards standardized susceptibility testing, has provided...

Brown D, Wootton M, Howe R
J Antimicrob Chemother . 2015 Sep; 71(1):3-5. PMID: 26377864
The BSAC Standing Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing is one of several European national breakpoint committees that agreed in 2002 to harmonize clinical MIC breakpoints. The process of harmonization has...

Jones L, Carvalho M, Toleman M, White P, Connor T, Mushtaq A, et al.
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2014 Nov; 59(2):923-9. PMID: 25421466
The blaNDM-1 gene is associated with extensive drug resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. This probably spread to Enterobacteriaceae from Acinetobacter spp., and we characterized plasmids associated with blaNDM-1 in Acinetobacter spp....

Perry M, Corden S, Howe R
J Med Microbiol . 2014 Aug; 63(Pt 11):1419-1426. PMID: 25102908
Infectious gastrointestinal disease is caused by a diverse array of pathogens, and is a challenging syndrome to correctly diagnose and manage. Conventional laboratory diagnostic methods are often time-consuming and frequently...

Jones L, Toleman M, Weeks J, Howe R, Walsh T, Kumarasamy K
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2014 Apr; 58(7):4211-3. PMID: 24752257
NDM-1 probably emerged in Acinetobacter species prior to its dissemination among Enterobacteriaceae, and NDM-1-like enzymes are increasingly reported in Acinetobacter species. Here, we report on the genetic context of blaNDM-1...

Khan S, Tondervik A, Sletta H, Klinkenberg G, Emanuel C, Onsoyen E, et al.
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2012 Jul; 56(10):5134-41. PMID: 22825116
The uncontrolled, often inappropriate use of antibiotics has resulted in the increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, with major cost implications for both United States and European health care systems. We...
