PEAK: Plasmid Evolution and Antimicrobial resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae

Antimikrobiell resistens (AMR) er en alvorlig trussel mot folkehelsa som er spådd å bli verre i fremtiden. En av de vanligste metodene som bakterier bruker for å kunne stå imot antibiotika, er å skaffe resistensgener. Disse sitter ofte på noen DNA-deler som heter plasmider. Plasmider som bærer re...
