HARNESSING PREDATOR-PREY PAIRS OF BUGS TO DO YOUR WORK FOR YOU is super smart. As the prey mutates to avoid the predator, the prey follows a similar mutational survival curve. The challenge with antibiotics are that they are stationary strategies and the bugs can quickly learn to mutate into resistant forms, if the target is not highly conserved and obligatory for life. Permitting a truly evolving kill strategy is perhaps the only way to stay abreast of antibiotic resistance.
