The combination of UVC light and blue LEDs could be the “final” weapon we've been looking for to combat the global threat of antibiotic resistance
Finding an alternative to antibiotics is becoming necessary, and perhaps will become urgent. Of the alternatives, antivitamins are the most promising.
IBM and the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology in Singapore have designed a new type of polymer capable of identifying and destroying antibiotic-resistant bacteria and preventing their evolution. The most interesting feature of this nanostructure is that it is biodegradable and does not accumulate in tissues: it can be easily eliminated from the body, unlike previous polymer-based solutions. The material, used as a real 'invisible missile', destroys the cell membranes of bacteria: it has a ... Read more
