Dublin, Jan. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) The Antibiotics: Technologies and Global Markets report has been added to
ResearchAndMarkets.com s offering.
The global market for antibiotics should grow from $44.4 billion in 2020 to reach $65.4 billion by 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1% during the period of 2020-2025.
The report focuses on newer drugs and innovations in chemical compounds, vaccines and biologicals, recently launched or in development. Specifically excluded from the scope of research are vector or mosquito control approaches, strategies and products; drugs used for symptomatic treatment and not for the elimination of the virus from the host; and details on manufacturers and suppliers of non-branded generics.
Research provides better understanding of how antibiotic resistance arises
Researchers at the Quadram Institute on the Norwich Research Park have shown how the development of antibiotic resistance by bacteria can have side-effects for them including affecting their ability to cause disease.
Antibiotic resistance remains one of the greatest challenges to global health with very few new antibiotics and widespread resistance. It has been estimated that tens of millions of people will soon die annually due to antibiotic resistant infections not being treatable. This new research has the potential to help in the development of new treatments, as well as giving us a better understanding of how resistance arises, and so guide current practices to minimize this.
DUBUQUE, Iowa – The upcoming virtual Driftless Region Beef Conference will host speaker Dr. Brenda Boetel. Dr. Boetel is the University of Wisconsin-River Falls Professor and Department Chair of Agricultural Economics and UW Madison Division of Extension Agricultural Marketing Specialist. Iowa State University Extension beef specialist Denise Schwab said Boetel will give viewers an insight on current market trends and the 2021 agricultural market outlook.
“The market outlook provides producers with market insight to make best management practices, and as 2020 markets have shown, it can be challenging to anticipate what future markets may have in store,” Schwab said. “The market outlook allows producers to prepare by having a better understanding of what the markets may have to offer and when may be the best time to buy or sell, as well as by considering different risk management options for alternative price scenarios.”
Study shows how new antibiotic resistance genes arise from random DNA sequences
An important and still unanswered question is how new genes that cause antibiotic resistance arise. In a new study, Swedish and American researchers have shown how new genes that produce resistance can arise from completely random DNA sequences. The results have been published in the journal
PLOS Genetics.
Antibiotic resistance is a major global problem and the spread of resistant bacteria causes disease and death, and constitutes a major cost to society. The most common way for bacteria to develop resistance is by taking up various types of resistance genes from other bacteria. These genes encode proteins (peptides) that can lead to resistance by: (i) deactivating the antibiotic, (ii) reducing its concentration, or (iii) altering the antibiotic s target so that the antibiotic can no longer bind to that target and hence halt the growth of the bacterium.
A sequencing-based solution can be utilised to determine infection clearance and microbiota recovery. Next, the researchers will apply the technique to.
