The model's ability to detect resistance without needing expert-defined rules also means it could potentially be applied to other bacteria or even in agriculture, where antibiotic resistance is ...

We commend the Correspondence from Hailie Uren and colleagues, who described the first substantial volume clinical antimicrobial susceptibility ... to the risk of horizontal transfer of bacteria with ...

And the international scientists also found that 97 per cent of the bacterial samples carried plasmids – tiny DNA ‘toolkits’ – that help spread antibiotic resistance. Join the Manchester ...

The BD Phoenix™ M50 Automated Identification and Susceptibility device (United States) was employed to assess the resistance of isolated strains to a panel of 28 antimicrobial agents, including ...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health problem, impacting human and animal health, and exacerbated by numerous factors; these include societal pressures of antimicrobial misuse ...

In 2017, Brazil joined the WHO Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS), contributing with AMR data from a pilot surveillance initiative in one state. 10 Since then, the ...

Researchers believe they have identified a new class of antibiotics, nearly three decades since the last new one came to market. Teams at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada and the University ...

The discovery responds to a critical need for new antimicrobial medicines in the threatening era of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The findings were published in Nature. Sir Alexander Fleming’s ...
