July 16, 2010 (Atlanta, Georgia) — The incidence of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157 and Shigella infections has decreased, but there have been limited declines in the incidence of ...
Scientists have made a major breakthrough in the accuracy and speed at which often deadly pathogen infections can be identified and treated. This is time that, in many cases, is critical to saving a ...
A collaborative team has re-engineered the process of microbial pathogen identification in blood samples from pediatric sepsis patients using broad-spectrum pathogen capture technology. The advance ...
Scientists have uncovered an unexpected way that certain bacteria manipulate plants from within. Plant-infecting bacteria have a surprisingly direct way of taking over crops. Instead of slowly ...
The field of infectious disease immunology has increasingly focused on the dynamic interplay between host immune responses and sexually transmitted ...
Pathogenic bacteria often delay the activation of their virulence program until they are inside the host. Researchers have ...
A research team has discovered a fundamental mechanism that helps the dreaded hospital pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii to survive. This mechanism explains why the pathogen is difficult to eradicate ...
