I’m going to keep this short because I really want you to check out Jason Mast’s new story. I’ve got a bit of a teaser below, but the whole remarkable tale is worth your time. Stay well and thanks for…
Naegleria fowleri, a brain-eating amoeba, is one of the most lethal infections in the world. Scientists at UC San Diego have isolated a molecule that could help us fight back. The researchers report that rutamycin B — a compound isolated from…
The researchers report that rutamycin B - a compound isolated from a marine bacterium - demonstrates significant potency at low concentrations against multiple clinical strains of N. fowleri. Most notably, the compound achieves full potency within just four hours, significantly outpacing amphotericin B,…
