Indian Researchers Develop Natural Weapon To Fight Antibiotic Resistance
The study, published in the journal 'Surfaces and Interphases', explores sustainable ways to counter the growing problem of "superbugs"- a bacteria that has developed resistance due to the excessive use of traditional antibiotics.
