Antibiotic resistance could accelerate humanity towards an already fast-approaching post-
antibiotic era, where disinfectants and effective biosecurity measures will be critically …

The two main pillars of clinical microbiological diagnostics are the identification of potentially
pathogenic microorganisms from patient samples and the testing for antibiotic susceptibility …

Antibiotic resistance increasingly limits the success of antibiotic treatments, and physicians
require new ways to achieve efficient treatment despite resistance. Resistance mechanisms …

Gut microbiota is a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Yet, limited information is
available regarding the presence (metagenomic DNA level) and expression profiles …

Aerosols are an important route for the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).
Since the 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the large-scale use of disinfectants has effectively …

Alternative to the conventional search for single-target, single-compound treatments,
combination therapies can open entirely new opportunities to fight antibiotic resistance …
