Now Tulane University researchers have identified a unique genetic signature in bacteria that can predict their likelihood of developing antibiotic resistance, according to a new study published ...

Antibiotic resistance genes were typically isolated by cloning from cultured bacteria or by PCR amplification. Those methods missed potential antibiotic resistance reservoirs because of ...

Two recent studies, published just days apart in Nature Microbiology and Science Translational Medicine found that resistance can develop against new antibiotics even before they are widely used, ...

The antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections occur when bacteria evolves to learn how to defend itself against common antibiotic and other medicines, making treatment ineffective. Overuse of ...

Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria change and become less affected by antibiotics. What about the antimicrobial? Doctors at UPMC help explain it. "That's just referring to any ...

For example, teixobactin, once hailed as a revolutionary drug, was believed to be less prone to resistance. However, the research revealed that bacteria can adapt to it with this adaptation ...

Scientists at Roche and Harvard University have discovered an entirely new class of antibiotic that can kill a highly drug-resistant ... to treat Gram-negative bacterial infections in around ...
