Bacteria-killing Paint For Hospital Walls In Development–Working So Far in the Lab With Killing Bacteria
Posted Aug 13 2010 8:14am
We all know the value of a sterile environment and fight this all the time. The new approach would a coat of bacterial killing paint. Enzyme coating in the paint could take any surface and make it sterile. They are using what nature uses with nano particles. So far this is just in the labs but working. It will be around 5 years they project until available.
It is working better than washing surfaces and takes a few hours to rid the environment of bacteria and this would also be good for the food industry. BD
Aug 13 - Researchers at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York have developed a paint that can kill even the most resistant bacteria. Ben Gruber reports.
