DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.2c00116
Abstract: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are effective antimicrobial substances that show promise in combatting multidrug resistance. The potential application and release of AgNPs into the environment may neutralize the selective advantage of antibiotic resistance. Systemic knowledge regarding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msad020
Abstract: Abstract Bacterial evolution of antibiotic resistance frequently has deleterious side effects on microbial growth, virulence, and susceptibility to other antimicrobial agents. However, it is unclear how these trade-offs could be utilized for manipulating antibiotic resistance… read more here.
