Some of the things that bacteria eat are … odd. There are bacteria that eat oil, for instance. But we might be more worried about some other bacteria - bacteria that actually eat antibiotics.
The researchers, led by George M. Church, a geneticist at Harvard Medical School, found hundreds of bacteria that can subsist on antibiotics as their sole source of carbon.
Fortunately, none of these antibiotic-eating bacteria cause disease in humans.
Yet.
