Researchers have developed a method that identifies bacteria easily, cheaply and more precisely than before. This can help reduce use of antibiotics.

The new study, published in the journal Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, is the first to show that bacteria living in the gut can influence how proteins in the brain are modified by ...

In a study published in the Gold Bulletin journal by a group of researchers from the Center for Applied Physics and Advanced ...

It’s more common in Asia and the Middle East and causes up to 20% of infections in intensive care units worldwide. The bacteria thrives in medical environments like hospitals and nursing homes.

Unlike other methods, this technique does not require long-term bacterial sample preparation and expensive reagents, which makes it promising for studying other strains of bacteria.

Shine a laser on a drop of blood, mucus, or wastewater, and the light reflecting back can be used to positively identify bacteria in the sample. We can find out not just that bacteria are present ...

After conducting all these procedures, the researchers compared the results with those obtained by the conventional method used to analyze resistance to antibiotics, in which live bacteria are ...

Scientists say they have developed a new type of antibiotic to treat a bacteria that is resistant to most current antibiotics and kills a large percentage of people with an invasive infection.
