When exposed to antibiotics, susceptible bacteria are killed; while excessive antibiotic use or th...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a natural phenomenon in which microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites adapt to antimicrobial agents and cause medications to be ineffective for its curing purpose. AMR is often the consequence of any use o...
You don't always need antibiotics when you're sick—only for infections caused by bacteria. And overuse is causing a global health problem.
Antimicrobial resistance happens when microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites) change when they are exposed to antimicrobial drugs (such as antibiotics, antifungals, antivirals, antimalarials, and anthelmintics). Microorganisms that develop antimicrobial resistance are someti...
La tuberculosis o TB es una enfermedad causada por la bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Esta bacteria por lo general ataca a los pulmones, pero también puede atacar otras partes del cuerpo, como los riñones, la columna vertebral y el cerebro. Si no se trata apropiadamente, la tuberculosis...
La sífilis es una infección curable de carácter sistémico causada por una bacteria llamada
Treponema pallidum. Se transmite por vía sexual y también durante el embarazo, de la persona gestante al feto, a través de la placenta (sífilis congénita) y en menor medida en el canal de parto. Dado...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is described as a situation when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites
change over time and no longer respond to medicines, making infections harder or impossible to treat,
and increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death.1 AMR in recent years has...
Trachoma is one of oldest infectious diseases known to humans. It is caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis, which is transmitted through contact with eye secretions of infected people (shared use of towels and handkerchiefs, contact with fingers, etc.), as well by flies that help spread it.
Yaws forms part of a group of chronic bacterial infections commonly known as the endemic treponematoses. These diseases are caused by spiral bacteria of the genus Treponema, which also includes endemic syphilis (bejel) and pinta. Yaws is the most common of these three infections.
Issue Brief 31: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) can occur when viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi change over time. There is no longer a response to medicines, and the infection treatment gets really difficult which increases the risk of a disesase spread, which can lead to severe health problems...

• Leptospirosis is a disease that is caused by
spirochete bacteria in the genus Leptospira.
There are 10 pathogenic species, and more
than 250 pathogenic serovars.
• While leptospirosis occurs worldwide, it is
more common in tropical or sub-tropical
climates.
This document provides practical guidance on planning and implementing next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology for characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) bacteria. The aim is to detect mutations associated with drug resistance in the context of a surveillance system for tu...
