Our biggest hope in fighting antibiotic-resistant âsuperbugsâ may have been right under our noses, or rather, right under our feet this whole time. Teixobactin, a new antibiotic found in soil, has been found to destroy all tuberculosis, MRSA, but most importantly, those strains which have built a resistance.In a new study, now published in the journal Nature, researchers explain how they tricked a microbe commonly found in soil into growing in a laboratory.eixobactin, a new antibiotic found in soil, has been found to destroy all tuberculosis, MRSA, but most importantly, those strains which have built a resistance.
