Synergism was not observed, but in some assays the action was significantly less than additive against resistant penicillinase-producing strains. Penicillin in combination with one of the new ...

Real-time imaging shows that bacterial resilience to antibiotics is not caused by a few ‘persisters’, but is a ...

Discover the importance of antibiotics, bacterial cell walls, and resistance mechanisms in fighting bacterial infections effectively.

Antibiotics are indispensable for treating bacterial infections. But why are they sometimes ineffective, even when the ...

Some bacteria abide against antibiotics not because they are good at hiding, but because their growth slows when nutrients ...

did not contain the minimum inhibitory concentration of either of the individual antibiotics used, and the result appeared to be a synergistic effect rather than the action of either drug singly.

Antibiotic resistance can develop to new antibiotics even before they reach the market, undermining their future ...

The studies emphasize the importance of prioritizing antibiotics with novel modes of action to bypass existing resistance. In cases where only certain bacterial species are prone to resistance ...

Exogenous enzymes not only influence the absorption of nutrients but also produce nutrients for specific populations of bacteria through their action (Bedford and Cowieson, 2012). Therefore, their use ...
