Researchers from the University of Liverpool have developed a new synthetic antibiotic, teixobactin, which is more effective than established drugs against superbugs like MRSA.<\/h2>\n
A new study has demonstrated the potential of teixobactin, showing its potent activity against bacterial biofilms.<\/p>\n
Associated with serious chronic infections in humans, biofilms are clusters of bacteria that are attached to a surface or to each other.<\/p>\n
