[7 Feb 2019] A new, multidisciplinary paper by CARe-researchers Christian Munthe, Niels Nijsingh, Karl de Fine Licht and Joakim Larsson addresses the impact of new, more widely applicable and more demanding research ethical guidelines for research to evaluate interventions to manage antibiotic resistance.
[17 Jan 2019] Poor drinking water quality is a major cause of diarrhea, especially in the absence of well-working sewage treatment systems. In this study, the numbers of bacteria causing diarrhea were investigated in water, soil and vegetable samples from the Choqueyapu River area in La Paz
[8 Jan 2019] Karkman et al show that "crAssphage", a virus specific to bacteria in human feces, is highly correlated to the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes in environmental samples.
[12 Dec 2018] Having CARe as a base has been very valuable in laying the foundation for the research environment that is now receiving long-term, strategic support, says Joakim Larsson, principal investigator.
[11 Dec 2018] A new article published in PLOS ONE concerning our ongoing efforts in the field of 'proteotyping'
[4 Dec 2018] In this study a new statistical model is presented which has, compared to other methods, a higher performance to identify genes that changes in abundance.
[30 Nov 2018] This study of the genomes of six carbapenem-resistant pathogens highlights many of the difficulties in introducing whole-genome sequencing-based methods for antibiotic susceptibility testing of bacteria.
