Transmission occurs via contaminated food, water, animals …

… uses new technology to map ME/CFS patients' immune responses against hundreds of thousands of bacterial and viral structures. By comparing patients with healthy individuals, important differences in immune responses can be identified.  If certain viruses or bacteria turn out to be involved in the development of ME/CFS, this will offer new leads for … of ME/CFS. The aim of this project is to investigate whether and how immune responses against bacteria in the gut play a role in ME/CFS. Approach The researchers in this project will map the …

… - 12:00 547001009 The emergence of antibiotic resistance is increasingly limiting treatment of bacterial infections. Bacteria can become resistant via a process called “horizontal gene transfer (HGT)” which enable …

… inhibition Antibiotics Sun, 03/01/2015 - 12:00 - Mon, 04/29/2019 - 12:00 205400001 Bacteria can become resistant against beta-lactam antibiotics (Penicillin) by replacing their … for crosslinking of the 3-3 bond. Aim The consortium set out to determine why and how bacteria could become resistant by using 3-3 crosslinks. Research partners The NAPLCI consortium …

… platform to standardize the collection of information on antimicrobial resistant genes and bacteria. It also marks a significant shift to not merely collect laboratory data but also … Schäfer presented a mechanistic model of infection evolution that includes interactions between bacteria, host cells and antimicrobial agents. He showed how, in an example of long-term N. gonorrhoea transmission in the presence of background antibiotic exposure, resistant bacteria could emerge through random mutation and selection.  Afterwards, Davide Vergni, …

… Hit Discovery Platform. Their approach uses novel chemicals, including compounds produced by bacteria in response to competition with fungi. They will also utilize a modular peptide …

… Resistance against β-lactam antibiotics is a serious health issue. Often it is caused by bacteria producing enzymes capable of inactivating these antibiotics, β-lactamases. This can be prevented by combining the antibiotic with a compound able to inhibit the bacterial enzyme.  Aim The aim of this project was to find new β-lactamase inhibitors. To … suitability for medicinal application, and ultimately to effectively fight β-lactam resistant bacteria. Results Besides the discovery of several compounds with beta-lactamase inhibitory …

… Candida prevalence in the environment and communities through wastewater, and identify gut bacteria that inhibit Candida growth as potential treatments. AMR Interventions 2024 (IMPACT, …

… itself will also gather extra biomaterials and data. Faeces will be collected to see what bacteria people have in their gut (microbiome). It will also study the effects of intense … as well as immune response. ‘There is, for example, evidence that antibodies against certain bacteria are more prevalent in people with ME/CFS’, Rosmalen explains. ‘One of our researchers … So I wrote a research proposal for a study of the impact of stress on biochemical processes and bacteria in the mouth, and I got my doctorate for that. Then I did further research in America …
