For every semi-endorsement of vaccines, the Health and Human Services secretary seems to add several more nonsensical ...

The intensification of global agriculture results in significant disposal challenges, with 14 billion tons of crop straw and ...

A genomic study of gut microbes during antibiotic use finds selective sweeps in a DNA gyrase gene that drive resistance.

A research team led by Professor Tong Zhang from the Department of Civil Engineering of Faculty of Engineering at the ...

A research team has developed a computational tool, Argo, designed to accurately track ARGs in environmental samples, providing insights into their dissemination and associated risks.

Could a gene regulatory network in gut microbes have evolved its elaborate and tightly regulated molecular machinery only to pump out antibiotics indiscriminately? Researchers show this is an ...

Antibiotic resistance genes were typically isolated by cloning from cultured bacteria or by PCR amplification. Those methods missed potential antibiotic resistance reservoirs because of ...

Microplastics don't just pollute our oceans. They could also accelerate bacterial resistance to antibiotics, according to a recent study. Researchers discovered that microplastics promote the ...
