Scientists have developed what they call a virus cocktail to fight superbugs in a major advance for infectious disease treatment. Researchers from Monash University and The Alfred, in Melbourne, Australia, have developed a product that uses bacterial viruses, known as bacteriophages', to combat antimicrobial-resistant bacteria. The treatment, named Entelli-02, is a five-phage cocktail designed specifically to target Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC), a group of bacteria responsible for severe, less treatable infections.
