A Dartmouth study finds that molecular hitchhikers living within bacteria can make their hosts extra resistant to medical ...

Researchers from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have uncovered how a ...

The problem of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has many health experts worried. As disease-causing bacteria adapt to some of our ways to reduce them, especially with antibiotics, it presents an arms ...

Scientists have identified essential genetic code for a method called plasmid curing, which aims to 'displace' antibiotic resistance genes from bacteria. Birmingham scientists have identified ...

An international collaboration has achieved an important breakthrough in understanding the genetic mechanisms that allow bacteria to build resistance to drugs. Bacteria have multiple defence ...

Antibiotic resistance is a growing threat that is already thought to contribute to the deaths of millions of people every year. One reason for this serious problem is that bacterial cells can easily ...

Researchers developed a CRISPR-based system that spreads through bacterial populations to disable antibiotic resistance genes ...

Sizeable differences in gene expression means and ratios—based solely upon where genes are located on a plasmid (gene syntax)—have been discovered by researchers at Dartmouth College. This new ...

New workflow validated on Dynamic Devices Lynx® delivers scalable plasmid DNA extraction from Midi to Maxi-prep volumes ...
