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.

Traditionally, antibiotics have come from natural sources ... reacts with the protein and kills the bacteria. Its unique action and composition means it can overcome any attempt by bacteria ...

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.

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 ...

On this show it’s the turn of Sir Alexander Fleming, who describes how in 1928 he discovered penicillin, which kills some bacteria responsible for serious human infections. The most important ...
