#BacterioMed The consequences of the war in 🇺🇦 can also be seen in health terms, with the accelerated spread of antibiotic resistance. Strain of K. pneumoniae producing carbapenemase (KPC) isolated from a severely wounded and infected Ukrainian soldier (bone infection from war wounds). #CPE

The lung opportunist A. xylosoxidans is not just a bystander, it hacks P. aeruginosa's virulence! One strain (Ax 200) tames P. aeruginosa by disrupting biofilms, motility & iron metabolism. First in vivo proof of this microbial rivalry!
