Using artificial intelligence AI trained on more than 39,000 compounds, a new class of antibiotics has been discovered to combat drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. This is what the scientific magazine revealed sciencesetavenir.fr
According to this article, these bacteria, responsible for 35,000 deaths in Europe each year, have become resistant to many existing classes of antibiotics.
Which means that thanks to artificial intelligence which made it possible to target promising compounds among 12 million substances already commercially available. Thus, this advance opens the way to new approaches to fight once morest antibiotic resistance.
One thing that is certain is that this discovery represents a significant advance, marking the first identification of a class of antibiotics effective once morest MRSA in 60 years.
