In a recent study, researchers demonstrated that a novel compound could treat flesh-eating Gram-positive bacterial infections in mice, potentially offering a new class of antibiotics. Researchers at ...

Clostridium perfringens is a spore-forming bacteria that can function without oxygen (anaerobic bacteria). These gram-positive bacteria are typically found in human and animal intestines. Bacteria are ...

Due to increasing antibiotic resistance in pathogens causing infections, the development of new antibacterial substances is needed. Scientists are testing out a new group of substances produced by ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a virtual Gram staining technique that could transform how microbiologists stain and classify bacteria. This ...
