OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.This article shows that antimicrobial resistance genes can be found in Aeromonas bacteria species isolated from marine sediments thereby understanding the importance of environmental spread antimcrobial resistance genes in aquatic environments. The study also provides a comprehensive profile of virulence genes found in Aeromonas media and that some beta-lactamase antimicrobial reistance genes are uniquely found to be conserved among Aeromonas media irrespective of the geographical region where the bacteria were isolated from and the host species. This provides a unqiue feature in terms of being conserved to harbour unique AMR genes among the Aeromonas media species. This is importance for teaching AMR to students as well as pathogenic mechanisms of bacteria.

OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational processThe study can be used to study the mechanisms of horizontal gene transfer among bacteria pathogens as well as understanding the pahtogenic mechanisms of bacteria. It can be used to understand the role of aquatic environments in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes.
