A new study finds that two subtypes of pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) produce five to 16 times more protective capsular 'slime' when Enterococcus faecalis (EF) is present. The finding could ...
Researchers suggest that wound dressings infused with antioxidants such as catalase could be an effective future treatment.
To confirm the central role of this process, the scientists used a genetically modified strain of E. faecalis lacking the EET pathway. As a result, hydrogen peroxide production dropped sharply, and ...

Study reveals how antibiotic resistant bacteria delay chronic wound healing
An international team of scientists, led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), has discovered a new way that could speed up the healing of chronic wounds infected by ...
A typical gut bacterium that can spread through the body and cause a serious infection resists natural immune defenses and antibiotics by enhancing its protective outer layer, known as the cell ...
