Jan. 16, 2024 Researchers have simplified the operation of an important class of chemical transformation: synthesis of beta-lactams, the intricate scaffold of many antibiotics. Their experimental protocol ...
June 9, 2021 Scientists have developed a new, highly sensitive analytical method that can detect degraded beta-lactam antibacterial agents used in the treatment of bacterial infections. With this method, ...
Oct. 25, 2021 The mechanism which allows beta-lactam antibiotics, including penicillin, to kill MRSA has now been ...
Aug. 31, 2021 Sequential treatment using antibiotics that are similar but swapped around frequently is an effective way to kill bacteria and reduce drug ...
Feb. 2, 2022 According to new research, the enzyme tokK helps synthesize a chain of methyl groups that allows potent antibiotics called carbapenems to circumvent antibiotic ...
Sep. 21, 2021 A team of engineers and biotechnologists has shown in mammals that the concentration of antibiotics in the body can be determined using breath samples. The breath measurements also corresponded to ...
Mar. 24, 2022 A study explains how to to find an optimal dosage that reduces the use of antibiotics without compromising the health of ...
Nov. 30, 2022 Antibiotic treatment disrupts the balance of beneficial and harmful bacteria in a person's gut. That disruption can lead to the overgrowth of fungal species in the gut mycobiota, including the ...
June 20, 2021 Researchers have optimized a new technique that will allow scientists to evaluate how potential inhibitors work on antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This technique, called native state mass ...
Jan. 26, 2023 A transporter which some bacteria use to recycle fragments of their cell wall has been discovered. Researchers found that the transporter controls resistance to certain kinds of cell-wall targeting ...
