 A study from 2019 supported the capability of phages in killing resistant bacteria unable to be treated with antibiotics.Research laboratories came together in order to find these phages by collecting, isolating, and exposing them to resistant Mycobacterium abscessus that had been isolated from a patient in London.A bacteriophage known as Muddy had proved effective at killing the patient’s distinct "Mycobacterium abscessus" strain (GD01), while phages like ZoeJ and BPs had reduced capabilities at infecting GD01.
