Australian researchers have developed a powerful new way to target deadly, drug-resistant bacteria by designing antibodies that recognize a sugar found only on bacterial cells—an advance that could ...

A monoclonal antibody created by the Nanobiotechnology for Diagnostics group (Nb4D) at the Institute of Advanced Chemistry of Catalonia (IQAC), part of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), ...

Researchers at UMC Utrecht have discovered that converting monoclonal antibodies from the IgG to the IgM isotype can significantly broaden their ability to recognize and bind multiple human-relevant ...

Scientists at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) have developed a new microarray-based diagnostic platform that can help close vaccination gaps and quickly detect ...

A hypervirulent and pan-resistant strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae stained with monoclonal antibodies against the capsule (green) and the O-antigen (yellow). The overuse of antibiotics is increasingly ...

Drug-resistant superbugs could be beaten by treating diseases with human antibodies, suggests a new study. The overuse of antibiotics is increasingly leading to the emergence of infectious superbugs — ...

As therapies and antibiotics develop and improve, pathogens adapt to overcome current medications. Bacteria are a specific organism that can adapt quickly to resist antibiotic treatment due to rapid ...

New Delhi, March 31 (IANS) The unusual approach of removing antibodies from the blood stream can reduce the effects of chronic infections, according to a study published in the American Journal of ...

Pathogens can create sticky situations. When microbes invade the body to cause an infection, often one of their first lines of attack is to cling tenaciously to the surfaces of targeted human cells.
