@cremieuxrecueil What's the evidence that the novel antibiotic produced by this bacterium (Mutacin 1140) is safe for long-term oral exposure? In a quick search, safety data seems sparse & based on cell culture data & analogy w related antibiotics.
@JGold101 @cremieuxrecueil @LanternBioworks Heres a few sites that might lead you somewhere. Im not quite convinced that messing with normal oral bacteria is a good thing but I only just now started reading about it. https://t.co/FERX8K4EtS https://t.co/
