Put your money where your mouth is: Surveillance of antibiotic resistance within the commensal Neisseria

The paper analyzes antibiotic resistance in commensal Neisseria isolates, identifying resistance mechanisms and their associations with specific mutations.

Re-visiting the potential impact of doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (doxy-PEP) on the selection of doxycycline resistance in Neisseria commensals

This study investigates how doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (doxy-PEP) affects doxycycline resistance in Neisseria commensals and its potential for horizontal gene transfer to pathogens.

In vitro evolution of ciprofloxacin resistance in Neisseria commensals and derived mutation population dynamics in natural Neisseria populations

The paper uses in vitro selection to identify ciprofloxacin resistance mutations in commensal Neisseria and finds conserved resistance mechanisms in pathogenic Neisseria.

Rapid heuristic inference of antibiotic resistance and susceptibility by genomic neighbor typing

This paper introduces a method to rapidly infer antibiotic resistance and susceptibility from bacterial genomes using genomic neighbor typing, achieving high sensitivity and specificity within minutes to hours.
