Researchers have found that antibiotic-resistant bacteria are fatter and shorter than their antibiotic-sensitive parental strains, and that these morphological changes correlate with changes in the ...

In the United States alone, antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria cause more than 2.8 million infections that kill more than 35,000 people per year. The issue is even greater in developing ...
