Chicken meat (broiler) production is a rapidly growing livestock sector in India, and one dominated by contract farming. Studies have reported high levels of antibiotic use in Indian broiler farms which is concerning given this is one of the driving forces for the development of antibiotic resistance. This study used the economic lens of agency the...
Interdisciplinary approaches are increasingly recognized as crucial for strengthening and integrating health systems. The implementation within One Health framework needs more guidelines for successful execution. Microplastics have become a growing environmental concern, as they are collectively found in all environmental sectors. Microplastics pos...
Background
In commercial broiler farms, the dissemination of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli presents a significant concern. These bacteria may spread vertically from parental stock or horizontally through contaminated feed, water, and infected companion birds. Understanding the transmission dynamics of ESBL-E. coli in sma...
According to the World Health Organization (1959)-Zoonoses are diseases and infections which are naturally transmitted between vertebrate animals and man‖. Today, about 60% of all infectious diseases are zoonoses and more than 75% newly emerging infectious diseases originate in animals and 71% of the total events of emergence of infectious diseases...
Inter-disciplinary collaborations are now considered as key factors for integrated health system strengthening. Its application in the domain of One Health needs more milestones to achieve. Other than the human health sector, the antimicrobials are used in food animals and aquaculture for therapy, prophylaxis and growth promotion which significantl...
In the global crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), colistin has been revived as a last resort treatment option for multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacterial infections. Rapid dissemination of mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) genes among Gram-negative bacterial pathogens is alarming the healthcare fraternity throughout the world, esp...
The bats usually do not come into contact with antimicrobials but they may harbour antimicrobial resistant bacteria through the
attainment of bacteria or genetic determinants from human, agricultural and aquatic sources. West Bengal state has the highest
number of bat species reported till date, which comprises about 54.72% of the total bat species...
Scedosporium apiospermum, an emerging opportunistic fungus, is increasingly implicated with serious invasive mycoses in immunocompromised patients. Rare occurrence and difficulty in identification of this species complicate the management of infection in dogs. In the present report, the characterization of a Scedosporium apiospermum isolate obtaine...
Dermatophytes having clinical importance both in man and animals belong to the genus Microsporum, Trichophyton and Epidermophyton. Now a days, in most of the dermatophytosis cases, there is a common complaint of failure of treatment from different parts of the world. This may be due to the development of different drug resistance mechanisms of this...
Microsporum canis is a worldwide-diffused pathogenic dermatophyte that can cause outbreaks in both
human and animal populations. Considerable upsurge in the incidence of multidrug-resistant M. canis has created the
urgency to identify and develop novel antifungals to avoid therapeutic failures during treatment. The present study was
designed to exp...
The order Chiroptera is the second largest order of mammals and shows great physiological and ecological diversity. These animals play significant ecological roles as prey and predator as well as facilitating pollination, seed dispersal, arthropod reduction and nutrient distribution and reutilisation in nature. Bats act as hosts to a range of viral...

Dermatophytes are responsible for a majority of superficial fungal infections. They are distinctive from other pathogenic fungi in their ability to use keratin as living. They can sustain in different ecosystems that added in their morphological and ecological range with high flexibility to changing environmental conditions. Lately, Microsporum can...
The pandemic of COVID-19 was caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) showed an exceptional challenge to the human population over the globe. The purpose of this review is mainly to review the organism, clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of COVID-19 and also to remark concisely on the epidemio...
