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. Centers for Disease Control ...
Manuel Razo-Mejia:When I expose bacteria to antibiotics, they’re going to become resistant, which is very bad because we haven’t discovered a new antibiotic in the last 30 years. Growing up back in Mexico, you did...
Enterobacter spp.and Serratia spp.Resistance to尾-lactams in Enterobacteriaceae is primarily attributed to the production of B-lactamase enzymes with subsequent antibiotic hydrolysis and to a lesser extent by alteration of efflux pump or porins expression.Carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE)and ...

Understanding Antibiotic Resistance Bacteria are microorganisms that naturally exist in the environment and even your body. Many are harmless and, in many cases, can even be helpful. Some bacteria, however, can be harmful if they enter your body or touch your skin. They can cause infections, su...
What makes bacteria antibiotic resistant?Bacterial IntelligenceMany antibiotics are very specific as to the species of bacteria it wants to target and kill. When developing resistance, this particular bacteria can change parts of itself so it is unrecognizable to the very antibiotic designed to destroy...
B. Tuberculosis strains are much more likely to be antibiotic-resistant than are other microorganisms. C. Bacteria that reproduce quickly are more likely to become resistant to antibiotics. D. Exposing microorganisms to a constant barrage of antibiotics prevents them from E. volving resistance. ...
Antibiotic resistance is the ability of a microorganism to withstand the effects of an antibiotic. Bacteria with a high degree of...
however,give the impression that resistance is everywhere,notes Lance Price,a microbiologist at George Washington University (who was not involved in the study)."We can control this.There's very clear evidence that when we turn off the antibiotic tap,we bring down drug-resis...
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...
