Using the Wax moth larva <i>Galleria mellonella</i> infection model to detect emerging bacterial pathogens

2018-05-21

Abstract excerpt

Climate change, changing farming practices, social and demographic changes and rising levels of antibiotic resistance are likely to lead to future increases in opportunistic bacterial infections that are more difficult to treat. Uncovering the prevalence and identity of pathogenic bacteria in the environment is key to assessing transmission risks. We describe the first use of the Wax moth larva Galleria mellonell...
