Teixobactin, a new antibiotic peptide that has the potential to avoid the development of resistance
Teixobactin is a newly discovered natural occurring antibiotic peptide. Teixobactin is a newly discovered antibiotic peptide identified from soil samples using isolation chip (iChip, Ichip, or ichip) technology. In recent years, researchers developed the iChip technology to allow for the… Read More ›
