This study aimed to characterize the genomic basis of resistance and virulence in <i>Campylobacter</i> spp. isolated from human stool at the University Hospital of Split, Croatia. A total of 115 unduplicated isolates (100 <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> and 15 <i>Campylobacter coli</i>) were identified and tested for antimicrobial susceptibility, from January to June 2023. A representative number of isolates with phenotypically detected resistance were analyzed with whole-genome sequencing. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was determined using genomic sequences as input data against the standard MLST schemes. High rates of resistance were detected to tetracycline (45% of <i>C. jejuni</i> and 26.7% of <i>C. coli</i>) and ciprofloxacin (81% of <i>C. jejuni</i> and 46.7% of <i>C. coli</i>), while combined ciprofloxacin/tetracycline resistance was observed in 43% of <i>C. jejuni</i> and 7% of <i>C. coli</i> isolates. The majority of whole-genome sequenced isolates possess <i>tet(O/32/O)</i> gene and <i>gyrA.T861</i> mutation, conferring resistance to tetracycline and fluoroquinolones. All isolates have at least one resistance gene for β-lactams (<i>bla</i><sub>OXA-61</sub>, <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-193</sub>, <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-450</sub>, <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-451</sub>, <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-452</sub>, <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-461</sub>, and <i>bla</i><sub>OXA-489</sub>), while 40% of isolates possess <i>ant(6)-Ia</i> for aminoglycoside resistance. In addition, a newly emerged, phenotypically identified multidrug-resistant <i>C. coli</i>, harbored <i>tet(O/32/O)</i> and <i>tet(O)</i> genes, point mutation in <i>gyrA</i> gene, and A2075G mutation in 23S rRNA. Virulence analysis highlighted <i>C. jejuni</i>'s broad pathogenic potential, including motility, adherence, invasion, exotoxin production, and immune modulation (e.g., <i>wlaN</i> gene, linked to Guillain-Barré syndrome). On the contrary, <i>C. coli</i> isolates possess genes exclusively for motility. Nine different <i>C. jejuni</i> MLST sequence types were identified, while all <i>C. coli</i> isolates belong to the same 828 clonal complex.

This study evaluates the antiparasitic effects of nitrate and lactic acid against <i>Sarcocystis</i> bradyzoites in sheep meat, aiming to identify effective decontamination methods to enhance food safety. Samples of <i>Sarcocystis</i> cysts were collected from infected sheep organs and treated with various concentrations (3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%) of nitrate and lactic acid for 3-48 h. Bradyzoite viability was assessed microscopically after staining and digestion. Additionally, bioassays were conducted using cats to confirm the treatment's efficacy. Results demonstrated that both compounds significantly increased bradyzoite mortality with higher concentrations and longer exposure times.

In contrast, nitrate required 12% concentration for 100% mortality within 24 h. Statistical analysis revealed a significant correlation between compound concentration and exposure time with bradyzoite mortality, highlighting lactic acid's superior antiparasitic properties at lower concentrations compared with nitrate.
