Methicillin resistant Staphyloccus aureus MRSA

Unfortunately the bacteria have also adapted to become resistant to various types of penicillin. New areas of research and plant searches are being undertaken to find a completely new way of attacking bacteria, particularly the very resistant ones of methicillin-resistant Staphyloccus aureus (MRSA). Recently a newspaper5 reported a new line of research scientists have managed to extract, from rock pool slime, a chemical that stops dead MRSA. Anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory drugs are being sought from the same source.
