Description
Goutam Chowdhury and co-authors reported a study published in 2025, though listed under 2026, on a bacterium called Proteus mirabilis in Northeast India. This uncommon gut pathogen was often found in hospital diarrhoea cases plus food and environmental samples from four states. The team characterised isolates and reviewed global data on its drug resistance.
They screened thousands of stool, market food, local food, and environmental samples. Isolation rates were low in diarrhoea but higher in environmental samples. Resistance to several common antibiotics was widespread, including a strong drug in some food isolates. Most tested isolates carried multiple virulence genes. A One Health approach is needed, they conclude.
