Full evolutionary journey of hospital superbug mapped – Science Daily
Researchers published the full genetic timeline of the bacterium, Enterococcus faecalis showing the influence of human behaviour on the development of different…
Modern hospitals and antibiotic treatment alone did not create all the antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria we see today. Instead, selection pressures from before widespread use of antibiotics influenced some of them to develop, new research has discovered.By using analytical and sequencing technology that has only been developed in recent years, scientists from Wellcome Sanger Institute, University of Oslo and University of Cambridge have created an evolutionary timeline of the bacterium, Enterococcus…
