Aztreonam–avibactam is a promising treatment for complicated intra-abdominal infections and hospital-acquired or ...

This medium is both selective and differential. The selective ingredients are the bile salts and the dye, crystal violet which inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria. The differential ingredient ...

This finding answers the question of how most bacteria catalyze the first acylation ... given its widespread occurrence in Gram-positive pathogens, it would be of special interest to validate ...

Three of these six pathogens are antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Recently, antibacterial drugs against ESBL-producing Gram-negative bacteria accounted for ∼15% (2 out of 13 ...

Broad-spectrum antibiotics can kill both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. But scientists say there is a critical need to find medicine that can target gram-negative bacteria specifically ...

A category of bacteria that produce a positive result with a violet dye staining technique, due to the presence of thick layer of peptidoglycan in their cell walls (bacteria that do not appear violet ...

Today you will finish up testing for both gram positive and gram negative organisms. There are few tests that can be read immediately that we call rapid tests. These are often useful initial steps to ...

In another line of research, Dr. Zechiedrich and colleagues are investigating whether the drug ciclopirox, an off-patent anti-fungal agent, could be repurposed as a candidate for antibiotic use, ...

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), multidrug-resistant pathogens caused over 1.27 million deaths worldwide in 2020. And figures are rising, with projections pointing to antimicrobial ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a virtual Gram staining technique that could transform how microbiologists stain and classify bacteria.
