Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) has emerged as an almost ubiquitous pathogen in both the community and hospital settings. The predominant clone responsible for community-associated MRSA ...

The “incubation period” refers to the time it takes for an infection to develop following exposure to a disease-causing pathogen. In the initial stages, an MRSA infection typically appears as ...

The microbe poses a significant threat to public health, made worse by the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteria (MRSA ... "It is a pathogen in dire need of control ...

Understanding MRSA's resistance: A novel cell division pathway sheds light on how this dangerous pathogen evades antibiotics, advancing our fight against superbugs. Antibiotics' contributions to ...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is well known as one of the most frequent etiological agents of healthcare-associated infections. The epidemiology of MRSA is evolving with ...

made worse by the spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteria (MRSA) in recent years. According to The Lancet, S. aureus was associated with more than one million deaths around the ...

Antibiotic treatment during an influenza infection actually impaired the body’s efforts to clear bacteria rather than helping the body heal.

Most antibiotics are meanwhile ineffective against resistant pathogens. Effective replacement antibiotics and a protective vaccine against MRSA are not yet in sight. A precise understanding of the ...

“[S]o-called ’SPF‘ or ’specific pathogen free' monkeys in U.S. laboratories routinely have outbreaks of tuberculosis, MRSA, bacterial pathogens that can cause dysentery, herpes B, simian ...

We have discovered small-molecule antivirulence agents against MRSA and other Gram-positive pathogens. These potential drugs do not kill the pathogen as antibiotics do, but disarm the pathogen of its ...

Zevtera will enable physicians to treat this important pathogen more effectively, as it is the only approved cephalosporin specifically for MRSA bloodstream infections.” Under the terms of the ...
