A new study found that proteins in Sydney rock oyster blood can enhance the effectiveness of antibiotics, making them up to 32 times more potent against drug-resistant bacteria. These oyster proteins ...

Several molecular aspects related to modulation of membrane proteins, bacterial physiology and genetics leading to AMR remain unexplored. This collection welcomes original research on understanding ...

In part two of our gallery of highlights from FoodNavigator-USA's recent trip to Israel, we profile startups exploring everything from upcycled yeast proteins and carob to antimicrobial proteins. Best ...

The search for a solution to antimicrobial resistance found something. And researchers found it in a true “it’s always the last place you look” location. Australian oysters. Or more specifically, ...

According to the World Health Organization, antimicrobial resistance is among the top ten global health threats facing humanity. Antimicrobial resistance occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and ...

The world is facing a “superbug” crisis, with experts predicting that some 39 million people could die from antimicrobial-resistant infections between now and 2050. Some illness-causing bacteria, ...

The answer to fighting a growing number of superbugs may be in the water. Researchers in Australia have pinpointed a protein found in oysters as a way to make antibiotics more effective. As infections ...

A team led by researchers at the Max Delbrück Center has uncovered the main activation mechanism of GBP1, a protein that plays a pivotal role in combating certain bacteria. Their study demonstrates ...

As protein-rich diets become increasingly popular, a new study suggests that categorizing dietary proteins as either animal- or plant-based fails to effectively capture the source-specific differences ...

Antimicrobial proteins in oysters are showing promise as a support system for antibiotics. Here’s everything to know. Andi Breitowich works across digital and print magazines covering health, fitness, ...
