The bacterium Alcaligenes faecalis, originally found in faeces, could help heal chronic wounds in people with diabetes. Researchers found that this bacterium speeds up wound healing by boosting skin cell growth and reducing harmful enzymes. While results are promising, more research is needed to understand its full potential and how it interacts with other bacteria before it can be used as a treatment.
