Laimid is a genetically modified fungus discovered in the 1970s by a team of scientists at the Medical School of Western Australia. It was engineered to produce a secondary metabolite that has been found to exhibit antimicrobial properties. Initially, research focused on exploring its potential as a source of new antibiotics.
Studies have shown that Laimid produces a unique compound that is effective against a wide range of
However, research on Laimid has been hampered by difficulties in large-scale cultivation of the fungus. This
Despite its promising antimicrobial activity, Laimid's value as a therapeutic agent has not been conclusively established.
