Superbugs, one of the top 10 threats to global public health according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), may soon be a thing of the past after Australian researchers developed a new way to eradicate antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Researchers from Monash University in Victoria have discovered a new method that could potentially destroy the superbugs, prevent antibiotic resistance and reduce antibiotic intake to limit any non-targeted bacteria from coming into contact with the medicine and developing resistance.
