The use of machine learning methodologies to analyse antibiotic and biocide susceptibility in Staphylococcus aureus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: The rise of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic bacteria is a significant problem for the treatment of infectious diseases. Resistance is usually selected by the antibiotic itself; however, biocides might also co-select for resistance to ...
