Antibiotic susceptibility in resistant bacteria is not static. New research shows that bacteria harboring resistance genes may respond differently to antibiotics if they are tested under conditions ...

Sub-lethal stress not only allows bacteria to survive but actively enhances their capacity to acquire resistance genes from the environment. This mechanism could contribute to the persistence and ...

The moment of death for the bacteria. A scanning electron microscopy image of the MOF structure puncturing the bacteria. The image was taken in Myfab's cleanroom at Chalmers University of Technology, ...
