Researchers at McMaster University have discovered unique characteristics of a mechanism used by bacteria to resist an important class of antibiotics. The new research, published in Nature Chemical ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Staphylococcal bacteria Kateryna Kon/Shutterstock Antibiotics are widely considered one of the most important advances in the ...

As more and more bacteria develop resistance to the drugs designed to kill them, a new study has found that even a relatively new antibiotic isn’t immune. Researchers have uncovered a gene ...

In a bid to better understand heteroresistance, researchers have identified two new ways that bacteria can increase their resistance to antibiotics. Researchers at Uppsala University (Sweden) have ...

Bacteria modify their ribosomes when exposed to widely used antibiotics, according to research published in Nature Communications. The subtle changes might be enough to alter the binding site of drug ...

The "Asia Pacific Antibiotics Market By Action Mechanism, By Drug Class, By Country, Industry Analysis and Forecast, 2020 – 2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering. The Asia ...

A new analysis shows that infectious bacteria exposed to the antibiotic albicidin rapidly develop up to a 1,000-fold increase in resistance via a gene amplification mechanism. A new analysis shows ...

Scientists have uncovered the equipment that enables bacteria to survive exposure to antibiotics: a shuttling mechanism that helps a complex of proteins pump out a wide spectrum of antibiotics along ...

Gram-negative bacteria possess an outer membrane that constitutes a formidable barrier to antibiotic penetration. This envelope, embedded with porins and other specialised channels, governs the ...

Antibiotic resistance is a major public health problem. Few new molecules are in development, but a new antibiotic called clovibactin brings hope. This drug, isolated from bacteria that haven't ...
