When people take antibiotics, some of the dose is excreted with urine and feces and ends up in our wastewater. The presence ...

Remnants of everything that humans ingest ends up in waste water, including medications that people may be taking, like ...

A single β-lactam exposure rapidly drives stable multidrug resistance in RecA-deficient bacteria through an SOS-independent mechanism involving oxidative stress-induced mutagenesis and ...

This important study looks into the effect of exogenous CoA on the response of TLR4-activated macrophages. Specifically, CoA enhances the LPS response by examining metabolomics, 13C tracing, and ...

Scientists have identified a new type of protein in bacteria that could change our understanding of how these organisms interact with their environments.

We report the development and proof-of-concept of a microfluidic chip, that provides a full range of pretreatment steps for the point-of-care detection of bacteria with a total process time of less ...

A better understanding of the resistance phenotype, transfer and mechanism of antibiotic-resistant Escherichia can fill gaps and expand our knowledge of resistant Escherichia epidemiology while ...

Metabolic bioactivation, glutathione depletion, and covalent binding are the early hallmark events after acetaminophen (APAP) overdose. However, the subsequent metabolic consequences contributing to ...

The work describes the interactions of nanosilver (NAg) with bacterial cell envelope components at a molecular level and how this associates with the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated toxicity of ...
