[edit] Ampicillin resistance

"Only those bacteria that carry the ampicillin resistance and, therefore, the gene can survive." This sentence needs more verbs. Does the author mean "Only those bacteria that carry the ampicillin resistance survive and, therefore..."? It seems likely, but I don't know the first thing about genes or ampicillin.

[edit] Cancer

Hi everybody.

« ... It is suspected to cause certain types of cancer in animals, including humans. »

I translated the page Ampicillin in the French language, but can someone confirm this carcinogenic risico as I am not sure of this and I didn't find any sources (not ever in a global internet search)... Friendly yours Eras-mus 18:43, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

This is a pretty serious charge, why don't you post the source of this translation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.72.99.82 (talk • contribs) 12:59, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
