    According to a new study released by the National Physics Laboratory in the UK, a virus that is completely synthetic (http:// can kill bacteria efficiently and is not easy to cause bacterial resistance According to the research report published in the new issue of nature communication, researchers from national physics laboratory and other institutions in the UK said that they have synthesized a virus in the laboratory, which can find and attack bacterial cells in the micro world like a micro UAV It can destroy the entire bacteria by contacting and destroying the cell membrane This synthetic virus destroys bacterial cells, which means that bacteria are not easily resistant to it, thus helping to solve the problem of bacterial resistance Marx riadnov, a researcher at the national physics laboratory and one of the authors of the report, said the study may bring new long-term and effective methods for the treatment of infectious diseases The researchers say the synthetic virus could also be used in areas such as gene editing in the future At present, some gene editing techniques often use a virus as a vector to transport the required genes to the cell interior.
