Antimicrobial resistance is becoming more widespread, and in at least one case, an organism resistant to all known antibiotics has emerged, bringing with it the potentially terrifying prospect of a modern-day plague. There are those who might label this type of talk as alarmist or panicky, but...
Antibioticshave long been used to treat infection and illness. While they can be effective, there is a down side. Antibiotics can have some unpleasant side effects. What’s more, bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics. The more you take the less effective they can be, making the healing...
Multiresistance can be facilitated by single proteins like efflux pumps which are able to use several antibiotics as a substrate [11]. Another way of becoming multiresistant is to acquire, by horizontal gene transfer, a plasmid and/or transposon carrying resistance genes for several antibiotics in...
killing 1.5m people. It can be cured if treated with the right antibiotics, but treatment is lengthy and many people most at risk lack access to adequate healthcare. Drug-resistant TB can develop when people do
摘要: A nitrogen-containing polysaccharide, which is obtainable by extracting mycelia of basidiomycetes belonging to the genus Coriolus of Polyporaceae with an aqueous solvent, is effectively used in promoting drug sensitivity of bacteria resistant to antibiotics....
Susceptibility to antibiotics and human-targeted drugs correlates across bacterial species, suggesting common resistance mechanisms, which we verified for some drugs. The potential risk of non-antibiotics promoting antibiotic resistance warrants further exploration. Our results provide a resource for future ...
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria from livestock pose a deadly risk to people. But the farm lobby won't let scientists track the danger
Petit, F.et al.(2015). Fate of Antibiotics and Antibiotic-Resistant Fecal Bacteria in Water and Sediments from the Contamination Source to the Estuary: Impact and/or Resilience? Resilience to Contamination by Antibiotics. In: Ceccaldi, HJ., Hénocque, Y., Koike, Y., Komatsu, T., Stora, ...
The microbiological vulnerability and the resilience of the aquatic environment to contamination by fecal germs, which in industrialized countries is accompanied by pharmaceutical contamination, will be a major health concern. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a complex ecological phenomenon which should...
Children represent a main target of studies due to the importance of limiting the spread of diseases and decreasing the need of antibiotics (Aureli et al. 2011). Clinical trials with LAB derived probiotics (L. rhamnosus GG; L. reuteri; L. casei; L. delbrueckii subsp. Bulgaricus) support ...
