Scientists have captured images of polymyxins, a type of antibiotic, disrupting and infiltrating the membranes of disease-causing bacteria.

Gram-negative bacteria deploy a range of protein toxins as mediators of inter-bacterial competition and pathogenicity. Among these, colicins comprise a class of ribosomally synthesised bacteriocins ...

Data reveal how the global challenge to reduce deaths and infections from drug-resistant bacteria is not going according to ...

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 ...

Physicians have relied on a class of antibiotics called polymyxins to fight potentially life-threatening Gram-negative ...

In the past few decades, many Gram-negative bacteria have acquired multi-drug resistance, compounding the global threat to public health. Many pathogenic bacteria, including those that cause dysentery ...

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 gut ...

In a new Frontiers in Nanotechnology study, researchers synthesize carbon dots using different precursors and studied their antimicrobial effects in gram-negative bacteria. This discovery comes at a ...

• Require X (hemin) and/or V (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) factors for growth • Responsible for 0.5–1% of all cases of IE • Haemophilus aphrophilus is the most common species responsible for IE ...

Gram-negative meningitis is a form of meningitis. The term gram-negative refers to a way of differentiating bacteria. This type of bacteria is typically resistant to drugs and most available ...

Expert Rev Anti Infect Ther. 2010;8(8):879-885. We recommend a thorough evaluation of patients with non-HACEK Gram-negative endocarditis to assess the necessity of surgical intervention. Decision to ...
