Few authors see antibiotic resistance as a prerequisite for probiotic strains, since residual antibiotics are likely to be present in the intestines of farm animals. According to Tannock, this situation can only COMPOUND the existing problem of antibiotic resistance, and resistant probiotic bacteria could act as a reservoir of antibiotic-resistance potentially transmissible to medically important pathogens.
Se trata de un estudio sobre propiedades probióticas de lactobacilos. En este párrafo, creo que "compound" significa agregar, sumarse. Están de acuerdo?
Gracias por su opinión!

agravar, incrementar
Hi Patricia,
It's used in this sense:
v 1: make more intense, stronger, or more marked; "The efforts were intensified", "Her rudeness intensified his dislike for her", "Potsmokers claim it heightens their awareness" [syn: {intensify}, {heighten}, {deepen}]
Agravar or incrementar are the translations given in Simon and Schuster for this one.
Hope it helps.
