Some notoriously difficult to treat infections may not be as resistant to antibiotics as has been thought, according to new research using a microfluidic device that more closely duplicates the fluid ...

The US Food and Drug Administration has approved a new type of antibiotic to treat urinary tract infections. The pill, ...

Some notoriously difficult-to-treat infections may not be as resistant to antibiotics as has been thought, according to new ...

Boston University researchers discovered that microplastics bolster bacteria's antibiotic resistance. The tiny plastic fragments, omnipresent on Earth, facilitate bacterial biofilm creation, thwarting ...

Microplastics are accumulating in vital organs and promoting antibiotic resistance in bacteria, which can prolong diseases and increase mortality. A study showed that bacteria like E. coli form ...
