When a child's bloodstream infection no longer responds to prescribed antibiotics, or a mother's minor wound turns life-threatening despite treatment, it is not because the medicines are no longer working but the germs causing the infection have changed and the antibiotics are no longer effective.

Virus-Built Silver Nanoparticles Show Promise Against Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria
The particles destroyed more than 50% of bacterial biofilms (the slimy protective fortresses bacteria form on medical devices) and worked against multiple dangerous pathogens including hospital superbugs
Silver has been used to kill bacteria for centuries, but scientists at UCLA have discovered a way to make it work much more effectively.
