The first large-scale genetic study of E. coli's protective armor has identified the five capsule types that are responsible for 70 per cent of all multidrug-resistant bloodstream infections in Europe ...
Birmingham scientists have identified an essential genetic code for a method called plasmid curing, which aims to "displace" antibiotic-resistance genes from bacteria. Plasmids, which are small, ...
Scientists conducted molecular profiling on 322 people from three continents, revealing that ethnicity and geography ...
