A degenerate PCR-based strategy as a means of identifying homologues of aminoglycoside and ß-lactam resistance genes in the gut microbiota [PDF]
, 2014 peer-reviewedBackground: The potential for the human gut microbiota to serve as a reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes has been the subject of recent discussion. However, this has yet to be investigated using a rapid PCR-based approach.

Tackling antibiotic resistance [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2011 The development and spread of antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a universal threat to both humans and animals that is generally not preventable but can nevertheless be controlled, and it must be tackled in the most effective ways possible. To explore how the problem of antibiotic resistance might best be addressed, a group of 30 scientists from ...

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates collected in Portuguese hospitals [PDF]
, 2012 Objectives: In Portugal, little is known on carbapenemase (CARB)-producing Enterobacteriaceae. The aim of this study was to identify the resistance mechanisms of Enterobacteriaceae isolates, identified at hospital laboratories as carbapenem (CA) non ...

Cell, 2018 Bacterial mechanisms of drug resistance operate at sequential lines of defense tackling drug at entry, accumulation, target binding, or downstream toxicity. These mechanisms are encoded by genomic changes ranging in scale from point mutations, through assembly of preexisting genetic elements, to horizontal import of genes from the environment.

Antibiotic Resistance of Bacteria [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2015 Antibiotic resistance of bacteria and other microorganisms is one of the most serious and grievous challenges of the twenty-first century. The life-saving drugs, which held a great deal of promises during the 1940s to eradicate all the infectious life-threatening diseases in the world, have ceased to work, because of the increasing emergence of ...
