"This result allowed us to test the impact of triclosan levels in human urine during antibiotic treatment of urinary tract infections in mice," said University professor Petra Levin. After the antibiotic treatment, the mice exposed to triclosan had a large number of bacteria in their urine and remained stuck to the bladder, but the unexposed mice had a significantly lower number of bacteria. They found 100 times more bacteria in the urine of mice treated with triclosan, suggesting that antibiotics are less effective at treating urinary tract infections when triclosan is present.
