The increase of microbes resistant to antibiotics is a growing problem. These include, for example, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, a bacterium which causes gonorrhea. Researchers from the universities in Konstanz and Vienna discover a new class of antibiotic that selectively targets Neisseria gonorrhoeae. These substances trigger a self-destruction program, which also operates in multi-resistant variants of the pathogen. This type of treatment could be used in an adapted form against other pathogens, so the scientists have made a real breakthrough in the fight against superbugs. The results have been published in the renowned journal Nature Microbiology.
