New treatment may ease lasting Lyme disease symptoms
A new treatment for Lyme disease offers hope to patients who suffer from long-term effects of the bacterial infection, even after antibiotic treatment.
Team finds antibiotic resistance ‘smoking gun’
New research finds a key clue that sheds light on the spread and evolution of antibiotic resistance.
Accident leads to basis for new antibiotics to kill resistant bacteria
Researchers trying to harness electricity from bacteria realized they may be onto solving another issue: antibiotic resistance.
Newly discovered virus kills ‘sleeping’ bacteria
Researchers have found a virus kills “sleeping” bacteria. The discovery could help fight germs that can’t be treated with antibiotics alone.
Antibiotics combo treats Lyme disease better
A combination of antibiotics is more effective in treating Lyme disease than the commonly prescribed course of a single antibiotic alone.
Molecular ‘warhead’ destroys Lyme disease bacteria
Researchers have found a way to deploy a molecular “warhead” that can annihilate the bacterium that causes Lyme disease.
