Gram-negative pathogens, such as Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii are now responsible for many infections, including infections occurring in hospitals. Because of their broad spectrum of antibiotic resistance many antibiotics may now longer work well. A few years after… Read More ›
