The fire in Mab Ta Phut Industrial Estate, which was first reported in the morning, was contained more than six hours later.

Officials said the tank, which has a storage capacity of 2,500 cubic meters, belongs to the Mab Ta Phut Tank Terminal company, which operates a commercial port and storage terminal for petrochemical products.

COE-PNH2, the molecule designed and crafted by the I-FIM researchers, is optimised to target Mab, employing a dual mechanism that disrupts the bacterial membrane and obstructs vital bioenergetic pathways -- a one-two punch that leaves the bacteria with little room to hide.

In particular, the molecule attacks both replicating and dormant forms of Mab, exhibiting robust bactericidal activity that leads to a more comprehensive eradication of the bacteria, leaving no refuge for resistance to crop up while reducing the likelihood of relapse.

Intriguingly, the researchers have also discovered the presence of intracellular vesicles in Mab treated with COE-PNH2.
