Summary

Scientists have found evidence that bacteria are attracted to the serum in our blood as a source of food. The horrifying findings seem to explain why these bacteria tend to cause life-threatening sepsis. The team hopes that the lessons learned from this and future research can help us find a way to keep these bacteria away from our blood entirely. The team wants to develop new drugs that block the ability to detect blood.
