🤯 As my time in Sweden for #EDAR6 comes to an end, I spent some time today exploring the coast and was shocked (but not surprised) to find the exact same #microplastic particles we’ve been studying in the UK with @UniExeCornwall and @PlymouthMarine as potential vectors of #AMR…

UK Fungus Day is just around the corner! Go behind the scenes of the work of @MRCcmm on 8 October with a series of special events 🌟
We are thrilled to be hosting an Open Doors event for the public to see "behind the scenes" of our research on 8th October. Find out more and come along to see us: ukfungusday.co.uk/join-in/op… #UKFungusDay

.@dr_anne_leonard (@ExeterMicrobes):
Human exposure to fecal born bacteria in waters:
Best assumed conditions people ingest 3 E.coli born ARGs from a single water sports session in british bathing waters. In bad conditions that number is increased by over 1000x.

Matt Jones (@befriendabacter) @ExeterMicrobes:
Systematic review of effects of antibiotic use on #AMR in cattle farms reveals steep increase upon administration with declines based on pharmacokinetic reduction in AB conc.
In feed administration appears to be favourable.

Only 18 studies could be included in the metaanalysis by @befriendabacter as around 50% of studies which met all other criteria did not appropriately share data.
Make your data available to allow for subsequent knowledge gain and to create impact!
Report! Store! Share!

Patients need safe phages, but how do you confirm a phage batch is safe? This week in C&T, @JessicaSacher (@Iredell_Lab/@PhageAustralia) shares her recent foray into learning about phage QC & working toward setting up a basic phage QC system in the lab. phage.directory/capsid/provi…

@HelmutBuergmann is estimating that as many resistant bacteria might be entering Swiss waters through the 3-4% of wastewater that enter untreated during bypass events as from the 96-97% treated wastewater.
Interventions are merited!

It's been a good month...another antimicrobial publication, this one further highlighting @COADD_news discovery that metal complexes are potentially a promising new class of antibiotics!
Metal compounds could be the answer to the growing problem of drug-resistant fungal infections.
21% of screened metal compounds showed anti-fungal activity indicating an exciting new treatment option.
