Scientists find bacteria that can curb malaria transmission

An international team of scientists has discovered a naturally occurring bacterium that could be the basis for new antimalarial interventions. The research, published in the journal Science, showed that the bacterium Delftia tsuruhatensis Tres Cantos 1 (TC1) can significantly reduce the malaria parasite load in both the mosquito midgut and salivary glands. It indicated the […]
