What about quorum defeating agents?

@9 So many live without a brain…evolution will either dispense with the remaining head soon or use it to house parasites…..perhaps a petri dish for roach brains!

@12 Pretty much. It will only delay the inevitable. We’ve learn’t given enough time, bacteria will adapt to just about anything. It’s not like all bacteria are out to kills us. Many have adapted to work with our bodies. It’s about maintaining balance.

Population was, and will always be the biggest problem in maintaining this balance. They’re trying to survive just as we are.

@1-14: I invite you all to a mixer at my house. I’ll be serving Staphylococcus cocktails, with a phage chaser. Should be a wild ride!! Keep studying, it looks good on you.

If we just cultivated bacterophages instead of looking for dumb molecules, we’d be able to keep up with any bacterial evolution of resistance because the phages would evolve more quickly.

great, so let’s make the bacteria resistant to cockroach antibiotics too. so they too will be extinct. great plan.

don’t fight the bacteria guys, you can’t win.

Dont do it, it’s not “we” that have discovered the next step. It is the bugs living with us, recognizing another stage of evolution to develop their growing powers. Soon all of the earth will be covered in mould, and bacteria. Infesting our bodies and destroying much living tissue. The much anticipated plague of boils and sores on the earth, it’s happened before see. Look back into our genetic repository and you will find, remnants of our resistance.
I’m sorry I have worked with bacteria for 10 years, you will not kill them, in their simplicity lies the key to their stranglehold. We must find something simple to kill them, or as pastuer would say, just change the host ph. Then many bugs die. Where there is no habitat, nothing can survive, let those who have ears to hear, let them hear.
