- Read how is investigated wastewater treatment plant employees and local residents are more likely to carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- Read how this project gained more insight into the resistance mechanisms of pneumococci, particularly the environmental, immunological and pharmacological factors.
- More and more animal manure is being processed before it is applied to land.AimIn ARMIS, RIVM together with WUR and international partners investigated the extent to which manure processing can reduce antibiotic resistance. Measurements were conducted in Canada, Romania, Germany and the Netherlands.ResultsComposting, fermentation, biological and large-scale treatment can reduce the amount of…
- Due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) worldwide, our current arsenal of antibiotics is becoming less and less effective in treating bacterial infections. After new antibiotics are introduced, bacteria quickly develop resistance against them. As a result, the return on investment in new antibiotics is minimal and their supply is scarce. A sustainable introduction is only possible…
- ExcludeMRSA investigated reducing farmers' exposure to LA-MRSA (Life Stock Associated Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) by treating piglets with a microflora that competes with this pathogen.GoalThe objectives include identifying bacterial species through microbiome and competition studies, studying the efficacy of a nasal microflora on piglets under field conditions, and estimating…
- This project investigated which of the many genetic mutations in the SORL1 have a risk-increasing or even causative effect on Alzheimer Disease.
- The project establishes cognitive, imaging and fluid biomarker measures that allow i) stratification of individual presymptomatic carriers into a stage near to symptom onset, and ii) measurement of disease progression during that period.
- PMI-AD stratifies early-stage AD patients employing a novel mechnistic pathway-to-therapeutic algorithm resulting in cost-effective diagnostics and therapeutics
- T@CKLE (Transdisciplinary Analysis and Co-creation of Knowledge to Lead Efforts against Online and Offline Sexually Transgressive Behaviour and Sexual Violence) thoroughly tackles both online and offline STBSV. With an integrated and transdisciplinary approach T@CKLE brings together experts, organizations and initiatives in a new national STBSV network. With this, the collaboration across…
- bvFTD is a common cause of early-onset dementia often misdiagnosed for a psychatric disorder. Aim is an early identification of bvFTD vs psychiatric disorders.
- Read more about how often frail older patients use preventive cardiovascular medication and why they stop taking them.
- Bacteria can become resistant against beta-lactam antibiotics (Penicillin) by replacing their 3-4 peptide crosslinks by 3-3 crosslinks in the peptidoglycan layer in their cell wall that gives the bacterium its shape and protects it against mechanical stress. Peptidolglycan consists of a network of sugars strands that are interconnected by peptide crossbridges. Hardly anything was known about the…
