Alterations to the respiratory microbiome have been identified as a predisposing factor of interstitial lung diseases (ILD). In a new study, researchers studied the influence of bacterial virulence on ...

Gram-negative meningitis is a form of meningitis. The term gram-negative refers to a way of differentiating bacteria. This type of bacteria is typically resistant to drugs and most available ...

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common, but increasingly hard to treat because the bacteria that cause them are developing resistance to many antibiotics. Researchers headed by a team at the ...

Infectious bacteria are growing increasingly resistant to drugs, which is becoming a serious threat to public health worldwide. Bacteria can be classified based on various characteristics, such as by ...

• Require X (hemin) and/or V (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) factors for growth • Responsible for 0.5–1% of all cases of IE • Haemophilus aphrophilus is the most common species responsible for IE ...

Researchers have discovered how antibiotic-resistant bacteria construct their defense system -- a finding that could lead to new treatments for currently untreatable infections. Superbugs, also known ...

Scientists at Duke University report they have developed a synthetic antibiotic that could be effective against drug-resistant superbugs and bacteria such as Salmonella, Pseudomonas, and E. coli.
