Confronting the clinical relevance of biocide induced antibiotic resistance (BIOHYPO)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

"Biocides have been in use for hundreds of years for antisepsis, disinfection and preservation. Despite this widespread and ever increasing use most bacterial and fungal species remain susceptible to biocides. The dramatic increase and spread of resistance to antibiotics linked to reports of co- and cross-resistance between antibiotics and biocides raised speculations on potential hazard of bioci ...
