Antibiotic residues have been found in several aquatic ecosystems as a result of the widespread use of antibiotics in recent years, which poses a major risk to both human health and the environment. At present, photocatalytic degradation is the most ...
BACKGROUND: Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ng) causes the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhoea. There are no vaccines and infections are treated principally with antibiotics. However, gonococci rapidly develop resistance to every antibiotic class used and...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to public health worldwide. It is a promising way to improve appropriate prescription by the review and stewardship of antimicrobials, and Post-Prescription Review (PPR) is currently the main tool used...
The condemnation of broiler carcasses in the poultry industry is a major challenge and leads to significant financial losses and food waste. This study addresses the critical issue of condemnation risk assessment in the discarding of antibiotic-free ...

The ample peptide field is the best source for discovering clinically available novel antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) to address emerging drug resistance. However, discovering novel AMPs is complex and expensive, representing a major challenge. Recent ...
Marine antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) represent a promising source for combating infections, especially against antibiotic-resistant pathogens and traditionally challenging infections. However, traditional drug discovery methods face challenges such a...
BACKGROUND: The use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectra (MALDI-TOF MS) combined with machine learning techniques has recently emerged as a method to address the public health crisis of antimicrobial resistance. ...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a serious threat to human health worldwide. It is now more challenging than ever to introduce a potent antibiotic to the market considering rapid emergence of antimicrobial resistance, surpassing the rate of antib...
