Impact of Antibiotics on the Evolution of Gut Microbiome and Antimicrobial Resistance
Following a single antibiotic course, the researchers discover how gut commensals acquire antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). According to the researchers, a single round of antibiotics may be enough to drive ARG acquisition and occurrence in gut commensals throughout the duration of a mammalian lifetime. Antibiotics are frequently used to treat infections and ensure surgical treatments…
