In a recent study published in Microbial Genomics, researchers investigated the genomes of a group of Staphylococcus capitis isolates from neonates. Study: Characterisation of neonatal Staphylococcus ...

Premature babies in neonatal care units are extremely vulnerable, and susceptible to life-threatening infections. To help keep these babies safe the risk of infection needs to be kept as low as ...

Staphylococcus capitis, specifically the NRCS-A strain, poses a significant risk to neonates, causing late-onset sepsis Genome sequencing revealed unique genetic markers in disease-causing S. capitis ...

Premature babies in neonatal care units are extremely vulnerable, and susceptible to life-threatening infections. To help keep these babies safe the risk of infection needs to be kept as low as ...

Scientists from the University of East Anglia and the Quadram Institute have tracked the bacterial strains behind life-threatening sepsis seen in premature babies. Their study, published in the ...

Premature babies in neonatal care units are very sensitive and susceptible to potentially fatal illnesses. To help keep these babies safe, the danger of infection must be kept as low as possible.

A new study into sepsis in neonatal babies has uncovered the secrets of the bacteria’s success in causing this life-threatening condition. Using genomic sequencing, they have found how certain strains ...
