How does antibiotic resistance occur?According to the CDC, each year, at least 2.8 million people in the U.S. become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics and at least 35,000 people die as a direct result of these infections.In general terms, antibiotic resistance can ...
In recent times, antibiotic resistance of pathogens to drugs (antibiotics) directed towards the degrading properties of microbes in vivo has been on the increase both in the community and in the hospital. Antibiotics are exceptionally vital in clinical medicine for the treatment of bacterial related ...
Other scientists conducted similar experiments by replacing phageswith penicillinand withtuberculosis drugs. Similarly, they found that bacteria did not need to encounter an antibiotic to acquire resistance to it. Bacteria have relied on random mutations to cope with harsh, constantly changing environments...
In recent years, WHO has recognized antibiotic resistance as one of the most important current threats to global health and food security. Even when the process happens naturally, it is accelerated by the wrong use of antibiotics in humans and animals, and the effectiveness of these in the trea...
Similarly, they found that bacteria did not need to encounter an antibiotic to acquire resistance to it. Bacteria have relied on random mutations to cope with harsh, constantly changing environments for millions of years. Their incessant, random mutations will lead them to inevitably develop variants...

"One of the most worrisome trends of the past few decades has been the emergence of antibiotic resistance among the 'big three' bacteria that cause most cases of AOM," says Ali Andalibi, PhD, a researcher in the department of cell and molecular biology at the House Ear Institute in Los ...
In addition, owing to the increase in antibiotic resistance and the difficulties in developing new antibiotics, hopeful strategies are urgently needed to change this situation [4,5]. In recent years, the antibacterial materials based on inorganic metal nanoparticles and their derivatives have been ...
Given what you know about genetic recombination in bacteria, do you think it is possible for the medical community to stay ahead of antibiotic resistance? Why or why not? Discuss how lipid metabolism is affected with Niemann-Pick Disease, particularly which enzyme(s), and how the body is affe...
