Multidrug resistant bacteria kill five million people each year, with newly resistant germs emerging faster than scientists ...
This evolution of resistance can be seen by growing bacteria on a large agar plate (a nutrient support that bacteria like to grow on) with zones of increasing antibiotic levels.
Scientists have discovered a way to control mutation rates in bacteria, paving the way for new strategies to combat antibiotic resistance. Antibiotics are given to kill bad bacteria; however, with ...
This resistance is heritable over 33 bacterial generations, even once the antidepressant is removed. So much work Antidepressants are among the most prescribed and ingested drugs there are.
The viruses that kill bacteria may be our best bet against antibiotic resistance – if we can understand how they win.
How a common antibiotic fuels bacterial resistance Date: June 9, 2025 Source: Rutgers University Summary: A new Rutgers Health study reveals a surprising twist in the antibiotic resistance story ...
A new weapon against antibiotic-resistant bacteria Date: November 4, 2022 Source: Université de Genève Summary: The unreasonable use of antibiotics has pushed bacteria to develop resistance ...
Researchers have combined the bacteria-killing actions of two classes of antibiotics into one, demonstrating that their new dual-action antibiotic could make bacterial resistance (almost) an ...
A team of researchers at Baylor College of Medicine is gaining ground in their search for solutions to the global problem of bacterial antibiotic resistance, which was responsible for nearly 1.3 ...
Antibiotics are given to kill bad bacteria; however, with just one mutation a bacteria can evolve to become resistant to that antibiotic, making common infections potentially fatal. The new ...
