Antibiotics are medications that are prescribed to fight disease-causing bacteria. However, high doses of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance, which is the ability of the microbes to ...

Researchers at Canada's McGill University have uncovered what could be a pretty sweet way of warding off bacteria. The scientists developed a concentrated extract of maple syrup and combined it with ...

Concentrated extract of maple syrup with common antibiotics could increase the microbes’ susceptibility, leading to lower antibiotic usage. Overuse of antibiotics fuels the emergence of drug-resistant ...

Antibiotics have been helping us fight off infections for nearly a century. While the drugs kill plenty of dangerous bacteria, they've also spurred the creation of 'superbugs' that no longer respond ...

Researchers found that the extract increased the permeability of the bacteria, thus helping antibiotics gain access to the interior of bacterial cells. Maple syrup extract may dramatically increase ...

An extract from maple syrup helps antibiotics combat infection-causing bacteria, researchers found. Above, Jim Lattanzi, owner of Hollis Hills Farm, held up a bottle of his maple syrup at the farm in ...

New research from McGill University is giving us a new reason to love maple syrup. The research suggests that a concentrated extract of maple syrup could make bacteria more susceptible to antibiotics.

Through some sticky synergy, scientists are exploring a natural way to limit antibiotic doses. Although maple syrup may seem more appropriate for a breakfast buffet than the lab bench, researchers now ...

When it’s been concentrated, an extract of maple syrup weakens harmful bacteria, reducing their resistance to antibiotics, according to a new study at McGill University in Canada. Making microbes more ...

At the two-day symposium organized by the ACS, a group of international scientists shared promising results of 24 studies exploring the beneficial effects of natural products on the prevention of ...

Vanilla is one of America's most popular flavorings. It's derived from the seed pods of orchids and is used frequently in baked goods. Most often, bakers use vanilla in the form of vanilla extract.

Toronto: Maple syrup extract may dramatically increase the potency of antibiotics, claim scientists who have found a natural way to prevent the creation of drug-resistant bacteria or "superbugs" by ...
