Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are one of the main causes of death in the world, according to a publication in The Lancet.
The evolution of antibiotic resistance is probably the most spectacular example of evolution of a biological system innovation that we have had the opportunity to observe in real time.
We talk about ribosomes, bacteria, and drugs with the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2009.
Man’s production of antibiotics has led to disease in microbial ecosystems on a planetary scale. The most immediate impact for man is the intractability of infections.
