Environmental biofilms are communities that can become very complex, where various species of microorganisms interact. Some environmental biofilms of public health interest are those that form in artificial water systems where Legionella can proliferate. These biofilms provide protection against biocide treatment. If aerosols are produced, a Legionella outbreak could occur. Biofilms can also form in the human body, providing various advantages such as resistance to antibiotics or protection against the immune system. Some of the most common microorganisms in these biofilms are Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas, Actinomyces and Lactobacillus. Environmental Biofilm, one microworld One Health ★ 3D– 13 – Shiny reindeer Joana Aguilar (Lisbon, Portugal) Pseudomonas aeruginosa on yeast medium under UV light, provides a shiny reindeer to illuminate our Christmas time! AGAR ART– 14 – Sunset ★ Botan Alexandru (Cluj-Napoca, Romania) Tackling the one health concept from a sunny beach in Barcelona using E. coli, Proteus vulgaris, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterococcus faecalis on UTI Agar. AGAR ART– 15 – Csilla Antal (Targu Mures, Romania) Walls. A turn to the right, walls again. Another wrong turn, a half-sentence, a shrug. Dead end. Going back to the beginning and starting in a new direction. The maze of communication. Every day I face the experience of how challenging communication is between clinicians and laboratory workers in our country. This has serious consequences. It is difficult to understand the other side, and especially hard to try again. We are interconnected. We need to find the way to each other. (I used UTI and CLED Agar, Serratia marcescens, XDR Acinetobacter baumannii and XDR Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from our hospital.) AGAR ART One Way ★– 16 – Bacterial Farm ★ Rocío Arazo del Pino (Cologne, Germany) “One Health” is based on the understanding that human, animal and environmental health are closely linked. In the One Health approach, the various disciplines - human medicine, veterinary medicine, environmental sciences - work together across disciplines to counteract, for example, the transmission of pathogens and play a key role in combating antimicrobial resistance. Resistance knows no borders and can spread quickly between humans, animals and the environment, making its way from the farm to our table. AGAR ART ★– 17 – Silvia Caamaño García (Fuenlabrada, Spain) OneHealth is represented in human (hand), animal (track) and environment (plant) images. In this congress, we have combined the idea of one-health with an icon of the congress city, the temple of Sagrada Familia. E. coli, S. aureus, P. mirabilis and C. albicans have contributed equally to this work. AGAR ART One Health at Barcelone Sagrada Familia ★ ECCMID– 18 – “Floral” Migration ★ Ilvana Çaklovica Küçükkaya (Istanbul, Turkey) With global warming, all species’ lives are affected, animals migrate and this also affects the vegetation. This agar artwork demonstrates, the migration of birds and accompanying flowers (Latin: Flora) from the branches of the trees. “Flora” of the earth has been changing in macro and micro worlds and the “migration” is the reason and also the result of that. The interrelationship of life of all species brings to mind the multifactoriality and inseparability of “One Health”. AGAR ART– 19 – Merica Carev (Split, Croatia) An increase in antimicrobial resistance and the outbreak of ESBL Salmonella Mikawasima has been detected in Split-Dalmatia County 2020-2023. The preliminary WGS analysis results suggest that clonal-related plasmids carry resistance genes. One Health surveillance is ongoing to find sources in the food chain and the environment.
