The microscopic shards of plastic found in every corner of the planet may be exacerbating antibiotic resistance, a new study has found.

This study shows that only those dual-targeting antibiotics limit resistance in Gram-negative pathogens that also target the membrane of the bacteria. This mechanism provides a basis for designing ...

The microscopic shards of plastic found in every corner of the planet may be exacerbating antibiotic resistance, a new study has found. Bacteria exposed to these ubiquitous fragments, known as ...

Research on how proteasomes generate antimicrobial peptides, revealing a new immune mechanism with potential applications for combating antibiotic resistance ...

One of the key elements of that system is the proteasome, a structure that chops up proteins that are faulty or no longer ...

For people with Crohn’s, antibiotics may help lower the amount and change the composition of bacteria in the intestines, which may relieve symptoms. They can also treat infections. Antibiotics ...

Despite much research, the exact molecular mechanism underlying stator function is yet unclear. In a new study, researchers analyzed the flagellar motor in Vibrio alginolyticus using cryo-electron ...

The biochar exhibited stronger adsorption capacity for chlortetracycline and sulfamethazine compared to the other antibiotics. The likely adsorption mechanisms driving the removal of tetracyclines and ...

However, the impact of COVID-19 on the use of antibiotics has not yet been extensively evaluated in China. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the pandemic on the consumption and expenditure of ...

As a seasonal shift happens, you or someone in your family may be feeling a bit under the weather. Doctors will often prescribe antibiotics, which assist in fighting bacterial infections like ...

Now that the mechanism has been identified, the researchers are using chemical and mechanical manipulations to disrupt the process, so that antibiotics can work unimpeded. The research, under ...
