Treatment with a mixture of antimicrobial peptides can impede antibiotic resistance
A common infection-causing bacteria was much less likely to evolve antibiotic resistance when treated with a mixture of antimicrobial peptides rather than a single peptide, making these mixtures a viable strategy for new antibiotic treatments.
