A poo transplant could cure bowel infections

A study found that implanting faeces from a healthy mouse into a sick animal's bum wiped out the illness.

Chair of Microbial Biology and Metagenomics at the University of Queensland, Mark Morrison, told Science Alert: "Using a dose of other gut microbes through faecal transplantation appears to effectively displace these antibiotic resistant microbes, which warrants further investigation."
