Researchers at Monash University in Australia have developed a technique to create 3D engineered surfaces that reduce bacterial growth. Their approach could lead to frequently touched surfaces in healthcare facilities that result in less bacterial transmission. This should lead to a reduction in the incidence of hospital acquired infections, such as urinary tract infections in patients with…

Mashup Score: 0Researchers identify new weapon to battle the rising tide of antibiotic-resistant bacteria - 3 year(s) ago
As scientists around the globe wage war against a novel, deadly virus, one University of Colorado Boulder lab is working on new weapons to battle a different microbial threat: a rising tide of antibiotic-resistant bacteria which, if left unchecked, could kill an estimated 10 million people annually by 2050.

Shiga toxin is a phage-encoded exotoxin that interrupts protein translation and functions as a virulence factor for enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), a human pathogen causing hemorrhagic colitis and acute renal failure. Havira et al. screened a panel of EHEC mutants lacking various virulence factors for mutants that interfered with inflammasome-mediated cell death. EHEC strains lacking…
