Clostridium perfringens is a spore-forming bacteria that can function without oxygen (anaerobic bacteria). These gram-positive bacteria are typically found in human and animal intestines. Bacteria are ...

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis developed a novel compound that effectively clears Gram-positive bacterial infections in mice, in particular skin and soft tissue ...

Researchers have developed a new antibiotic that reduced or eliminated drug-resistant bacterial infections in mouse models of acute pneumonia and sepsis while sparing healthy microbes in the mouse gut ...

Gram-negative meningitis is a form of meningitis. The term gram-negative refers to a way of differentiating bacteria. This type of bacteria is typically resistant to drugs and most available ...
