Objective:To investigate the drug-resistant gene characteristics and core genome characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae (CR-ECL) in rural residents of Weifang City, Shandong Province. Methods:Fecal samples were collected from rural community residents in Weifang City, Shandong Province in 2017. Drug-resistant strains were screened using a carbapenem-resistant enterobacter chromogenic medium. CR-ECL positive strains were acquired via Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry(MALDI-TOFMS) analysis. The antibiotic resistance phenotype of CR-ECL was determined using a microbroth dilution assay. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) and analysis were conducted, along with an examination of the immediate vicinity of the blaNDM gene and phylogenetic analysis of the strains. Results:A total of 628 fecal samples were collected and tested, of which 6 were CR-ECL positive (detection rate 0.96%), all exhibiting multiple drug resistance (MDR) phenotypes. Six CR-ECL strains had four MLST genotypes (ST), all of which carried multiple drug resistance genes ( blaNDM-1, blaNDM-5, etc.) and virulence genes ( acrA, acrB, entB, fepC, etc.). There were mobile genetic elements ISAba125, TN3-IS3000, TN3 and IS5 in the genetic environment surrounding the blaNDM gene. The phylogenetic tree showed that the multi-locus sequence typing of the core genome (cgMLST) was consistent with the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) results. The cgMLST results showed that the allele differences between strains 2BC0101B and 2BC0251B, 2BG0561B and 2BI0221B were 2 and 1, respectively. The SNPs results showed that the above two pairs of bacteria also clustered together. It was found that the strains of chicken fecal samples in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database were located in the center of the evolutionary tree, and the local sequences could be traced back to American human sequences. Conclusion:Multidrug-resistant CR-ECL is detected in rural community residents in Weifang City, Shandong Province.

Objective:To investigate the drug resistance status and genomic characterization of Proteus mirabilis (PM) isolated from outpatient cases with diarrhea in Tai′an City and Laizhou City, Shandong Province. Methods:A total of 510 fecal samples were collected from 510 patients with acute diarrhea admitted to 43 sentinel hospitals in Tai′an City and Laizhou City, Shandong Province, between January 2021 and December 2022. The samples were cultured and isolated to identify Proteus spp. by direct inoculation, the drug susceptibility testing was performed by microbroth dilution method, and resistance genes and virulence genes were obtained by whole genome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis, thereby revealing the genetic environment surrounding the blaOXA-1 and blaCTX-M-65 genes. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis and core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) were conducted on the current strains and 100 PM isolates downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database via customizable methods utilizing RidomSeqSphere+ software, with the objective of exploring the phylogenetic relationships among the strains. Results:A total of 35 strains of Proteus were isolated from 510 fecal samples, including 31 strains of PM with a detection rate of 6.08% (31/510) and four strains of Proteus vulgaris.The multidrug resistance rate of PM was 100.00% (31/31).The 35 isolates carried a total of 43 resistance genotypes.Thirteen strains of PM carried blaOXA-1, six strains carried both blaOXA-1 and blaCTX-M-65, and 15 PM strains carried at least 15 antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The virulence genes included ureA, mrpA, ZapA, hpmA and so on. blaOXA-1 and blaCTX-M-65 genes were surrounded by mobile elements such as Tn3, ISL3 and IS6. cgMLST showed consistency with the SNP clustering results. Isolate 2022LZ41 from Laizhou City clustered with isolates 2022TA018, 2022TA017 and 2022TA019 from Tai′an City, with the number of allelic differences ranging from zero to two, and the Laizhou City isolate 2022LZ40 was highly genetically related to strain CRK0056 (human, USA, 2015). Conclusions:PM isolated from patients with diarrhea is multidrug-resistant, carrying many resistance and virulence genes.The presence of mobile genetic elements can lead to horizontal transfer of resistance genes.

The breakage pattern of unit particles during the production of oral solid dosage forms (OSD) is closely related to the quality of intermediate or final products. To accurately characterize the particles and study the evolution law of particle breakage, the Bonding model of the discrete element method (DEM) was used to investigate the breakage patterns of model parameters, particle shape and process conditions (loading mode and loading rate) on the dynamic breakage, force-time curve, breakage rate, maximum breakage size ratio and fracture strength of particles. The results showed that the particle breakage force was positively correlated with normal strength and bonded disk scale, negatively correlated with normal stiffness per unit area and tangential stiffness per unit area, and weakly correlated with tangential strength. The particle breakage rate was negatively correlated with the aspect ratio of the particles, and the maximum breakage size ratio was positively correlated with the aspect ratio of the particles; among the three loading modes, the breakage rate of compression breakage model was the largest, the breakage rate of shear breakage model was the second largest, and the breakage rate of wear breakage model was the smallest; the maximum breakage size ratio was positively correlated with the loading rate, the loading mode and the loading rate had no mutual influence on particle breakage rate, but had mutual influence on the maximum breakage size ratio. The research results will provide a theoretical basis for the shift of OSD from batch manufacturing to advanced manufacturing.
