Researchers have engineered a library of strains that can be used to develop new antibacterial compounds to help address antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Acinetobacter baumannii bacteria. University ...

New research has shown that a lack of dietary zinc can boost the chances of a lung infection caused by Acinetobacter baumannii bacteria; these pathogens are a major reason why people on ventilators ...

Hospital-acquired infections are often hard to treat because the corresponding pathogens become increasingly resistant against antibiotics. The bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii is particularly feared ...

A research team led by Beate Averhoff and Volker Müller of Goethe University Frankfurt has discovered a fundamental mechanism that helps the dreaded hospital pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii to ...

A new study from Emory University addresses the growing global crisis of antibiotic-resistant infections. Many of these drug-resistant bacteria are spread through hospitals, and there are few ...

When stressed by high salt concentrations, a number of the cultured Acinetobacter baumannii bacteria die after a few days (orange dots), but many continue to live in a kind of deep sleep (VNBC, green ...

In an effort to illustrate that genomic surveillance can build the foundation for scaleable precision phage therapy, an international collaboration analyzed the genomes of over 15,000 cases of ...
