A population-based study led by the University of Turku, Finland, investigated factors associated with the prevalence of antibiotic resistance. In addition to antibiotic use, diet, gender, living ...
For bacteria, microplastics are the perfect meetup spot—tiny, intimate surfaces where microbes can cling, huddle close and swap genes. And these crowded bacterial breeding grounds may pose a threat to ...
Talk about a culture shock. Microplastics, like the ones pictured here, have been linked to several health concerns. Researchers from Boston University identified another downside to microplastics — ...
For bacteria, microplastics are the perfect meetup spot—tiny, intimate surfaces where microbes can cling, huddle close and swap genes. And these crowded bacterial breeding grounds may pose a threat to ...
Researchers have identified three key factors that increase the risk for patients to pass on carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriacecae to another patient, helping explain why ...
In Guatemalan communities, a recent visit to a health clinic or hospital - not antibiotic use - is the strongest predictor of carrying bacteria resistant to critical antibiotics, according to a new ...
A study published in Frontiers explores the microbial diversity within hospital sink drains across multiple wards over a year-long period, focusing on bacterial communities, species identification, ...
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are already directly responsible for the deaths of an estimated 1.27 million people every year, and these challenging infections contribute to the deaths of millions more ...
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is spreading awareness to an increase in drug-resistant bacteria in its report, Annals of Internal Medicine. Infections related to the bacteria, called ...
BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - Researchers at LSU are discovering a way to fight back against drug-resistant bacteria through a ...
Talk about a culture shock. Microplastics — tiny particles that come from large plastic items and industrial waste — can ...
