Original Title: Scientists modified structure of existing antibiotic, vancomycin. Compared to the original vancomycin, EVG7 was found to be 100-to-10,000 times more potent against a range of bacterial pathogens, with fewer side effects when tested in mice. This may help against resistant bacteria like MRSA or VRE.
