Researchers at EPFL and Vrije Universiteit Brussel have developed a novel and highly efficient method for rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing using optical microscopy. The technique, called ...

McGill researchers have developed a diagnostic system capable of identifying bacteria—and determining which antibiotics can stop them—in just 36 minutes, a major advance in the global effort to curb ...

A recent Lancet Microbe study investigated the accuracy of antibiotic resistance determination from Enterococcus faecium genomes for diagnostic purposes. Study: Antibiotic resistance determination ...

Antibiotic tolerance allows bacteria to survive treatment without resistance, leading to persistent infections and relapse.

The new research shows that there are useful antibiotics hiding in plain sight (Photo by Becker & Bredel/ullstein bild via Getty Images) We are running out of new antibiotics that can be used to treat ...

Clinicians should remain vigilant when prescribing antibiotics for gram-negative urinary tract infections due to the evolving spectrum of antimicrobial resistance. Clinicians should consider the ...

“We have developed a technique in our laboratories that allows us to obtain an antibiogram within 2-4 hours – instead of the current 24 hours for the most common germs and one month for tuberculosis,” ...
