The use of antibiotics for a short time can also create resistance in gut bacteria

New -Delhi, April 26 (IANS). The problem of reduced effects of medicine in the treatment of infections, ie infections, has become a major health issue worldwide. Every year, millions of people die for this reason. A new research has shown that taking antibiotics can also cause long -term resistance to our stomach bacteria for a short time. Scientists at Stanford University, USA, in this study focused on an antibiotic called ‘Ciprofloxacin’. This drug is used in the treatment of bacterial infections of many parts of the body. Research has found that siprofloxacin can constantly cause resistance in many different bacterial species and that this effect may last more than ten weeks. The main cause of AMR is excessive or abuse of antibiotics. Earlier studies were conducted in the laboratory or on animals, but in this new research scientists studied 60 healthy people and saw bacteria change to antibiotics. This research is printed in a magazine called ‘Nature’. Researchers have asked 60 healthy adults to take 500 mg of siprofloxacin twice a day for five days. He took the stools of the participants and analyzed 5.665 bacterial genomes of a computer technology, with more than 2.2 million genetic changes (mutations). Of these, 513 bacterial groups found a change in a gene called ‘gyra’, which is associated with making resistance of an antibiotic group called fluoroquinolon. Florocinolone is antibiotics that disrupt and kill the process of making DNA of bacteria. Most mutations are formed in each person’s body. About 10 percent of the bacteria, which could first die from medicine, have now become resistant. This resistance remained even after ten weeks. The special thing is that the bacteria that were more than before would become more resistant. Scientists said: “This study shows that a brief use of siprofloxacin can also develop resistance in stomach bacteria, and these changes can last long after the drug is over.” Research given shows that bacteria in the human abdomen continue to change themselves so that medicine does not affect it. This change plays a major role of their genes and the surrounding environment. -Ians as/ share these story tags
