Infection Resistant Costa Rican Sloth Antibiotics Offer Hope For Human Medicine
According to a study published in the journal Environmental Microbiology, infection-resistant sloths in Costa Rica may offer hope for human medicine by providing new sources of antibiotics. The fur of Costa Rican sloths appears to harbor antibiotic-producing bacteria that scientists hope may hold a solution to the growing problem of “superbugs” resistant to humanity’s dwindling […]
