Antibiotic resistance

Nikola Zlatkov Kolev, postdoc at the Department of Molecular Biology, Umeå University.

Nanoplastics Found to Reduce Antibiotic Effectiveness and Promote Resistance

A model structure of a ribosome noted with color-coded flexibility indicators; red highlights ribosome regions that become more flexible, while blue depicts more rigid areas.

Scientists Discover ‘Achilles Heel’ of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in Magnesium Battle

An interdigitated stimulation platform enables the assessment of bacterial excitability in response to electrical stimulation

Unnoticeable electric currents could reduce skin infections

Researchers have now developed a new single-cell genome technique to understand how bacteria interact and exchange genetic material, including antibiotic resistance genes at the individual cell level.

Nasal microbiome: depriving multi-resistant bugs of iron

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have developed a compound that is effective against common bacteria that can lead to rare, dangerous illnesses. This image shows untreated Streptococcus pyogenes bacterial culture full of healthy microbes, labeled green (left). After treatment by GmPcide, the dish is full of dead bacteria (red; right).

New Antibiotic Compound Shows Promise Against Deadly Flesh-Eating Bacteria

This rotifer has just survived a life-threatening infection. When a fungal disease attacked, she switched on hundreds of genes that her ancestors copied from microbes, including antibiotic recipes stolen from bacteria. Notes: This animal is about a quarter of a millimetre long and belongs to the species Adineta ricciae. It has two red eyes on its head.

Tiny Wheel Animals Steal Bacterial Genes to Make Their Own Antibiotics

A (light green) bacterial cell detects a source of stress and becomes activated (dark green). It then produces alarmones (depicted as red triangles) and can transmit them to neighboring cells via cell-to-cell contact (black arrows). As the source of stress arrives, the percentage of activated cells increases, converting unstressed neighboring cells and triggering the stress response mechanism.
