Amid a surge in drug-resistant bacteria, researchers believe they have discovered a new class of antibiotics for the first ...

That process led to the group discovering a lasso peptide that exhibited broad-spectrum antibiotic activity and was effective ...

Drexel researchers have developed a simple DNA PCR-based lab test — built on a more detailed genetic analysis of the main ...

High-performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection (HPLC-DAD) was tested for detecting antibiotic residues in ...

“Microplastics are like rafts — a bacteria on its own might not be able to swim down a river, but riding in its biofilm on a tiny bit of plastic it can be disseminated into many different ...

The microscopic shards of plastic found in every corner of the planet may be exacerbating antibiotic resistance, a new study has found. Bacteria exposed to these ubiquitous fragments, known as ...

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...

Microplastics—tiny shards of plastic debris—are all over the planet. They have made their way up food chains, accumulated in oceans, clustered in clouds and on mountains, and been found inside ...

Given the growing antibiotic resistance crisis, novel ways to target bacterial infections are becoming increasingly important. One potential strategy is to manipulate bacterial genes at the ...

Overuse of antibiotics is currently the primary reason for the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and Kiel University, however, have ...
