① 如今,可造成感染的致病菌正在进化出对传统抗生素的耐药性;② 因此,急需新的对抗细菌的方法;③ 其中一种新的提议是,利用捕食性细菌作为活体抗生素;④ 最新的两项研究发现,捕食性细菌对活体动物无害并且可以杀死动物体内的病原体。 Title:

Abstract:
In a world where infection-causing, pathogenic bacteria are evolving resistance to conventional antibiotics, new solutions are needed. One proposal is the use of predatory bacteria as living antibiotics. Two new papers show that predators are not harmful and can kill pathogens inside live animals, a very positive step forward.
