A drug-resistant type of bacteria that has adapted to health care settings evolved in the past several years to weaponize an ...

When exposed to antibiotics, approximately one out of every 10 8 -10 9 bacteria develops resistance due to spontaneous ...

New research suggests that VREfm have the ability to produce bacteriocin, an antimicrobial that can kill or inhibit other ...

VRE causes severe hospital-acquired infections like endocarditis and sepsis and has developed resistance to multiple ...

A drug-resistant type of bacteria that has adapted to health care settings evolved in the past several years to weaponize an antimicrobial genetic tool, eliminating its cousins and replacing them as ...

The first-of-its-kind in-depth bacterial evolutionary map could pave the way for the development of precision treatments for ...

realized that EDS-HAT was also a treasure trove of detailed historic information that she could mine to learn about the evolution of bacteria over time. Mills focused on vancomycin-resistant ...

An AI model trained on large amounts of genetic data can predict whether bacteria will become antibiotic-resistant. The new study shows that antibiotic resistance is more easily transmitted between ...

A newfound ability to produce an antibiotic helped a strain of antibiotic-resistant bacteria to take over a hospital.

A Chinese research team has successfully developed a triplex real-time quantitative fluorescence PCR method capable of ...

However, due to the similarity of the glycopeptides, bacteria quickly developed resistance to teicoplanin. The short-lived success of teicoplanin as an alternative to vancomycin motivated ...
