The appropriateness of combination therapy for infections caused by gram-negative organisms is examined ... of superinfection with more-resistant bacteria or fungi. There are no clinical data ...

These ESKAPE Gram-negative bacteria are notorious for their intrinsic and acquired resistance to antibiotics, leading to high morbidity and mortality rates. The lung, as the primary site of infection, ...

Until now, it’s been very hard for scientists to establish a detailed timeline of the early evolution of bacteria.

Bacteria can be engineered to sense a variety of molecules, such as pollutants or soil nutrients. In most cases, however, these signals can only be detected by looking at the cells under a microscope ...

Scientists have helped to construct a detailed timeline for bacterial evolution, suggesting some bacteria used oxygen long before evolving the ability to produce it through photosynthesis.

Tiny magnetic bacteria that live in tightly bound groups are showing scientists how life might have evolved complex, multicellular forms. These rare bacteria can’t survive alone – they depend on one ...
