Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Propionibacteria

👉 The term "propionibacteria" is a generic name for bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. Propionibacteria are found in soil, water, and air, making them highly prevalent in environments where antibiotics are not available. They can be difficult to treat because of their resistance to antibiotics, but they have been used as an alternative treatment for various conditions due to their ability to produce antibiotics themselves.
