Scientists at the Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology have developed a new type of antibiotic that uses bio-nanotechnology to target and eliminate antibiotic-resistant bacteria, known as 'superbugs'. The innovation combines gold and lipid nanoparticles with sophisticated gene editing systems to destroy specific bacteria while leaving beneficial microbes unharmed. This breakthrough, published in leading international science journals, could revolutionize the treatment of infections and significantly address superbug challenges.
