Ultraviolet radiation has been used for years in water coolers to prevent harmful microbes from growing in the water lines between uses. Increasingly ultraviolet germicidal irradiation is being used to disinfect hospitals. The UV rays disrupts the microbes by destroying nucleic acids and breaks down their DNA, leaving them unable to perform cellular function. ...

A study recently published in the journal, Clinical Infectious Diseases, discovered azole-resistance markers in 75% of a small group of aspergillosis patients who had not previously been treated with an azole. The research was conducted by the University of Manchester working with colleagues in the United States. Aspergillosis is the disease cause by Aspergillus. According to the Centers ...
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) one out of every twenty hospital patients acquires an infection while being treated for another illness. To help combat this problem, the CDC’s Prevention Epicenter Program recently announced $10 million awarded to five medical centers to explore ways to reduce healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Also this week the ...
