Short peptides can self-assemble into net-like structures that kill bacteria. Now, researchers have discovered how to control ...

Researchers have developed a new antibiotic that reduced or eliminated drug-resistant bacterial infections in mouse models of acute pneumonia and sepsis, while sparing healthy microbes in the mouse ...

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.

LpxC inhibitors target a zinc-dependent deacetylase that catalyses the first committed step in lipid A biosynthesis, an essential process for the viability of Gram-negative bacteria. As lipid A forms ...

Clostridium perfringens is a spore-forming bacteria that can function without oxygen (anaerobic bacteria). These gram-positive bacteria are typically found in human and animal intestines. Bacteria are ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers in the United States of America designed and discovered lolamicin, a selective antibiotic that targets the lipoprotein transport system ...

To date combination therapy for infections by CR GNB is not supported by evidence from a series of adequately sized RCTs. However, pre-clinical data and emerging clinical evidence from observational ...
