Antimicrobial nanoparticles are designed to combat bacterial resistance through mechanisms like ROS generation, membrane ...

"This challenges the notion that microplastics are merely passive carriers of resistant bacteria and highlights their role as ...

Could microplastics be fueling antibiotic resistance? - Boston researchers found that bacteria exposed to microplastics ...

In an age where public health concerns are at the forefront of global attention, cleanliness and hygiene have never been more ...

Overuse of antibiotics is currently the primary reason for the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Researchers at the ...

Microplastics don’t just carry bacteria — they actively help them develop drug resistance. Researchers found that within days ...

A new study shows that microplastics facilitate antimicrobial resistance, even without the presence of antibiotics.

Microplastics provide an excellent bacterial breeding ground that may be contributing to the growing problem of antibiotic-resistant superbugs, a new study says.

“The reduction may reflect changes in antimicrobial use policies, including restrictions on tetracyclines and penicillins in food-producing animals. Also, vaccine protection against Salmonella species ...

Peptides designed by artificial intelligence restrict both drug-resistant bacteria and rapidly evolving viruses.

Researchers were shocked to see that bacteria's antimicrobial resistance is strengthened when exposed to plastic particles and point to a potential outsized impact on refugees.
