.

In the second part of the study, the team treated bacteria-colonized mice twice, four hours apart, with either lysin or a mock treatment of fluid. The lysin treatment was 100 percent effective in preventing acute otitis media in the 10 treated mice while 80 percent of mice receiving the fake treatment developed the ear infection.

“The nasal spray may eventually be used weekly during the flu season to keep the person free of Streptococcus pneumoniae or after someone is infected with the flu virus, Fischetti said. “This might truly be a case in which an ounce of prevention would be worth a pound of cure.”
