The manuscript explores how bacterial evolution in the presence of lytic phages modulates b-lactams resistance and virulence properties in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The work ...

A bacteriophage is a type of virus that infects bacteria. In fact, the word "bacteriophage" literally means "bacteria eater," because bacteriophages destroy their host cells. All bacteriophages ...

A survey of a waterway on Wurundjeri land has led to the discovery of new viruses that kill the superbug Klebsiella.

Researchers from Monash University discovered two versions of a previously-unknown bacteriophage, a virus that kills bacteria, in the Merri Creek, a waterway that flows through Melbourne's northern ...

The virus – given an Indigenous name that translates to “dangerous Merri lurker” in English – has the potential to save ...

Using the same samples from the bacterial study, Hartmann conducted DNA sequencing to examine the viruses present. The results were astonishing. The microbiologists found that there was no overlap in ...

Virulence of Yersinia has been studied in my laboratory since 1980 and the approach has been to use the tools of modern molecular biology and genetics to elucidate the selected aspects of it.

A survey of a waterway on Wurundjeri land has led to the discovery of new viruses that kill the superbug Klebsiella.

In this GEN webinar, Konlin Shen, PhD, will discuss practical applications of enzymatic DNA synthesis technology in DNA nanotechnology.

A survey of a waterway on Wurundjeri land has led to the discovery of new viruses that kill the superbug Klebsiella.With estimates that superbugs will ...
