Using Bacteriophages to Combat Drug-Resistant Bacteria
In a recent breakthrough, scientists have discovered a promising new approach to fighting drug-resistant bacteria: bacteriophages. Bacteriophages are viruses that specifically attack bacteria and can be used to target and kill dangerous drug-resistant strains. This could be a major step forward in the fight against antibiotic-resistant infections, which are a growing global health concern. The study, published in the journal Nature Communications, shows that using bacteriophages to target drug-resistant bacteria is a safe, effective, and potentially more affordable approach for treating infections.
