What is antibiotic resistance? Antibiotic resistance happens when an antibiotic loses its ability to effectively control or kill bacteria. The bacteria become "resistant" and continue to grow because the antibiotic being administered has no ability to kill them. The World Health Organization, the U.S...
One of the biggest problems is that bacteria can become resistant to the medications that were once able to kill them. This is known as antibiotic resistance. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are harder to treat and therefore more likely to spread before the infection is under control. One of the...

Metagenomic studies have shown that antibiotic resistance genes are ubiquitous in the environment, which has led to the suggestion that there is a high risk that these genes will spread to bacteria that cause human infections. If this is true, estimating the real risk of dissemination of resistanc...
Indeed, from a medical point of view, an ideal ‘therapeutic’ antibiotic should have a selective effect on the pathogen without being toxic for the host; that is, should be a ‘magic bullet’, as expressed by Paul Ehrlich, the founder of chemotherapy. Show abstract Microbial Resistance ...
